Stray Sunlight














Stray Sunlight

Because of our dreams we like to shine,
In our sparkly suits and velvet silence,

And yet, my friends, this is an understanding
That nothing is deeper than nothing:

Eye-popping skulls, poetry of the absurd,
Stray sunlight gleaming, diffuse halo.

Your true thoughts are so deadly,
I dare not write them here.
