circus mirror
pale waves of mist
kiss & bless you & I
as we patrol these walkways in the sky
rain seeps through holes
In my heart, so scared am I
here, alone with you
streetlights shine,
lab rats scurry into mind,
straight into these concrete estates
of the heart
screeching seagulls shit freely
through black holes in the fabric
torn apart, broken-backed,
dead fat twins in the mirror
look at each other autistically
in the distorting mirror of time
side-by-side we slide into place
with nothing to see
and nowhere to hide.
