[MY SLIDE SHOW PROJECTS NIGHT UPON THE DAY]
My slide show projects night upon the day.
Exaggerated night
now. Beyond the expectations housed in imagination,
find me, fully-clothed and waiting on a train
in the snow.The train barrels ahead, a catastrophe
of time in the manner of distraction.The next slide is not night, but rather of dusk
on the film of a lake. Tracks hem in the water
to provide a sense of secrecy and express
the eternal joy of wonder to be found
in a wheel. Is this train the space where I am?
A daydream in the mind of a fossil is where I dwell.
A thorn left unattended becomes a central part of myself.
