effervescing time
that measure we will ape to the last
with each searching minute gray
count in the bleeding thousand
glowing windblown days bleating
mainlining radioactive decay
just breathing in hairless eternities
time again to get to know trees
before the trees are done
locked and resting sun-side
end it with a pointless ritual march
across the twilight barrier
to the clutch of ancient hollow tombs
standing stones a semicircle in a circle
while the world shades this last target
until the sun’s last swallow whole
