Too Soon
I am the star shot flare
born in heat and shrapnel
a screaming tunnel where
landscapes blur and vector
into breathless lines.
an arc of howling friction
riding the effervescent foam
of a burning star.
---trembling trajectory
---breakneck rattle
too-soon-too-soon
glint of the horizon
wailing vomit streaked sky
converging into the dawn
my momentum --- a breathless gasp
my life-- a ragged blur
My Flame
Lost-In-The-Light
