who are you? what?
welcome seems too easy
midnight makes announcements
in klaxon bestiary style
a blooding, a brood
riding in the grey
a grey instead of the dark
this is our parting
possible evolution—
a cold body affects calm
translations for the witness
descend like all winter
a lure of bedrooms
a blue so bottomless
the bottles though
our bottles are all emptied
