in the aftertime

 

you’ll tune for someone’s last signal

 

play the old discs where still indoors

              and toxic out

 

as if it were all that was held in the air

   all that the air could hold

 

return to our dust, thumb pages

 

yes, there’s what’s to it? 

             and it glows

 

will it be a matter of waiting

 

after the terrors and still

a world of unburied bones

 

we all did this

who said no?

 

walk in

who’s to know where we’ve gone?

 

word still keeps under a stone

and sometimes there’s nothing there

                        no one

 

twig in boot, go on
