The moon – dissolves a star
Sweet – safe – houses
At night – dead-end dreams
Empty – silent - roads
When formula has failed
To the skies –
no laws
For the merry shadows
Of all multitudes
Under the dirt
Under the night
Under the mind
Soul peeled naked –
imperial blow
Calvary –
exhibited to strangers
Asleep be the hum
In silence of streets
Recluse at present -
dreadful
Wild places planted in the mind
Solitude -
led me then away
City of Pause
