Reading and Beading

To become
a fixture

lets the bulb
light the same place

the same place
without a trace

after switch.
Chandelier us,

great incandescence.
Each bottle blues

as the green eyed constant
searches for news.

Concrete sidewalked us
and that is where we talked

awkward in earnest.
I would like to step

like the wolf
in a whirl

of nary pacific
scary honorific

icy narcissistic
dignified dishonor.

The bread in the window
shingles another sidewall

offering a few more minutes
to a hand that bites

the mouth that eats it.
Gate expectations

and they will resect
the big ambiguous,

red wagoning Mr. Death
to the unseated edge

on appropriate
Mt. Deceit.
