My neighborhood is full of hungry birds.
Blue jays
Cardinals
...
My box of organic raisin bran
Has more flakes than
Raisins.
...
darkness creeps
behind me
with sharpened claws
...
See that tree over there?
It's just me. The sum of my shadowed legacy
Standing alone, invisible
...
Death
Drives a badass
Lowrider car.
...
Imagine yourself
In my own bed
Feverishly writhing
In the sheets.
...
'By and by the magician will throw us all back into his black hat.'
