Licking the Conception of My Sky

"LICKING THE CONCEPTION OF
MY SKY"



the Pacifico cans
have gone silent,
the echoes 
of my life drown
inside the darkness 
of that hole-
a hole many a men
know all too well.
as the filters taste
my lips and the
side swipe of the
gods slam me like 
a royal flush on
the table,
the air in my lungs
continues to fight
like a brand new
box of cigarettes.
