Detour By Patrick Lichty My love, Chicago is burning snow, sparks and stars beneath electric wheels perched high above the city webcams show us to the world
My love, Yzmir is burning regrets of not crossing the bridge only to remain in the center ring, alone with a circus dog and five tiny lions My love, New Orleans is burning Shotgun house burned to the waterline nine feet and rising police line stretches for exactly one mile My love New York is burning chelsea, village, upper east side a stolen kiss in Brooklyn seems like an eternity ago to me My love Cleveland is burning the blood-red suns sinking in fire and smoke, and ash we shall not ride on horseback after the apocalypse My love, buffalo is burning green fairy tangled skein cause and effect set in motion in an endless return My love, andaleah is burning nightless sky the earth shudders beneath my feet as you draw near to kiss me My love, the net is burning firewalls snap circuits blow secrets flow causing everyone in the world to panic My love, my heart is burning warm here, silent snow stars above sparkles below snowflake on my tongue sitting, knowing you will never return _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list [email protected] http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
