My hopes and plans are getting a divorce,

who keeps the kid?

Reflection of a reflection

Image of an image,

Cutting myself on fragments of

A turf war I call

Home dripping down my spine

Shivering from the heat

Claimed by heaven and hell

a waterboarded conscious

sputtering on empty

Check the receipt,

who keeps the kid?

Frequency of the photon,

Position of the retina,

locked in covenant color.

It’s imagined anyway

Theatre of mind

illusion the star

delusion the producer

Beauty blinds the beholder
