Thrust of Dusk


   Pulp wrung out of sunset squeeze
   Chinese dragon clouds 
   make mandarin marquees
   Purple curtain shrouds
   Folks without homes nobody sees


   Electrified skies spark dust to flare
   inside a vacant apartment
   Twilight society’s fabric tears
   Cringe crimson impairment
   Wealth shields from irradiated glare


   Wishing star stuck in limbo, catapults 
   daydream sun, distant flung
   Pigeon sprauchle sudden vanish jolts
   Mortified moon, hopes hung
   Crusted blankets magic carpet vaults
