among derelicts
Justin Reynolds

 

meet me in paris
ho ho ho
i can use this device
to connect to millions of people
the hope being
there is one out there
that outweighs the others,
combined.

we are chasing hope;
we are longing for power,
the way you roll over
middream
& your quandary subsides.

i am running from
crumbling decades.
i am comforted by
the reticence of silence.
i'm inhaling yesterday's oxygen
in hopes to find the path
that leads to the meadow.

it's just
these fields are scorched
& your forests simply aren't open
to the public.

it is here
we lie.
