the middle chapter, w/ a couple new emotions

 a slow piano jazz

fills the bar, the smokey vibes

and cocktails, ice, glass clinks

of troubled minds feeling

weariness depart.

rain outside in the brick alley

way while memories of you

are plucked in emotional intervals;

inner skull, and they bounce around

reflecting this version of my life.

nothing beats A Dive to explore

all that. Those crystal tumblers

help the bone collectors as they pour; so

look at my cup, decide on the empty

or full. The music always on but they play the weekend only

and if it stops raining

the lightbulb for last call flares -

that brutal scathing feeling,

of the sun about to arrive

&circadian woes, musing, inside,

the mind. Ever present dropping. 

Have you felt it? The falling  awake or

asleep, doesnt matter... 

sounds of bodies shifting from dancing

to chairs scraping the floor.

 

 can be heard always

but no way it stays the same.
