is this love i'm feeling?
i had forgotten it's taste

that part of me chains me down?
away from you, towards new l

wires course through hallway forests,
their tongues lapping at cieling lights.
finding meaning in quiet little launches,
taking refuge up there in silver clouds.
        fires brew under your feet. keep going.

carpets hiss with anticipation. smiling
as you step to conveyer belt after belt after...
across the world - it's a map to the end.
beginning of death of past's future's soul.
        i don't exist. change is murder. keep going.

inhale; feel. there's nothing here for you.
