ALL
THE WAY TOWARD EXTINCTION
summer was fading into the futile air
am I the one killing it
killing
it?
scorch strokes of sun spew
a seeming sportingplay glare fixed by
void-of-time undercuts
live wires snarling its former children
splash hapless
across bones scents gripping
of faded maples, who is it
killing
them
killing them?
lock onto their growing growls too loud
repeated slices into heart
at
its color

green frameart
shatters blind toward
total fish-escape slipping
inside out our what-were lives try
whispering "hibiscus"-
what someone is killing them
killing
them? as a jewel seen centered
into my forehead
impossible
from last nights twirled stringy thin
mock light-void lightning bugs
pretend neon dance
why are you killing them
killing
them?
blading down cascades of stainless steel
solar blazes sizzle a chopping
into many a
mismatched phrase pulse
less
cold the water's ice age
becoming tugs against
