An extension cord
Reaching from the moon to the earth
Connecting the gaps
Which bypasses the flat
Surface of time and space
Certain of a face that’s mine to taste
A bulldozer flattens my home
Fertilized seeds
Molten tar bleeds
Making concrete
The grass that was once so soft under my feet
“A pistol
A shot, a shooter
The one time believer
Jammed, was the revolver
Evolved into a massacre
Sexual
It was put inside of her
Oppositional
Left a conqueror
Coincidental was the pleasure
A quiver
Through the spine of her
Should she shiver
Hypothermia
Will deliver
The death she prays for in the dead of winter”
Based on a true story
In all its shame and all which is unholy
Even in glory
The fake
The phony
Pick up the phone
It only you calling

| These types of poems are always hard to read because you want to wring the person's neck who does wrong in them. |

I take it as a literal rape of time and days-
if not ...(i>I apologize
time is moving waywardly and faster
than the speed of common sense..
It's what it says to me-
(save for the fact a woman is afoot..lol)
I love it either way-
