Compress the carton of ribbon
between fingers of those
who find fingers of these.
fingers of fish.
they swim with me.
in an octopus' garden
in the shade
the shade that holds the darkness
like a pillow
soft,
close,
and warm,
like horses prancing
through a silver storm
A storm of silver white
Composed of fluffy feathers
and of silver spoons
and silver knives
Everything is silver
and everything is gold
Whilst everything else
Is upside down
When you see all those smiles turn to frowns
and yet also see those frowns turn to smiles
And everyone drinks tea...
All day long...
Welcome to Ephemeral City
My heaven.
compressing old stuff
