Description
it’s like spinning swiftly on the spot:—
colors coalesce and the world is tripping
over itself—spinning spinning spinning every moment
there is the risk of falling
and in the heat of the moment you cool yourself
with your own manufactured wind—

you pause just long enough to blurt
an answer and then you tumble, teeteringly,
magnificently, to the unforgiving floor
and you can feel the tilt of the earth
sending you sliding, hands scrabbling, breath ragged,
into the oblivious future
