| Pilgrim I spied the sedentary vessels murmur in the bathroom, ghastly in their gurgles, whispering, and at funerals obfuscating, pay this taxes in your finest black, in backyards eating barbecue, loading down their plastic cups with maverick yellow beer. In other yards were shaggy mutts snapping jowls, electric, mauling angles, rolling roughly, awesome fanged attacks. Behind the last boundary, (a whitish fence) the night was poking down the sun, and the house this fence surrounds is the house of love, now an empty space where my body emptied out a word or two, before coming through the night, alone, riding this thin black bike. |
