Night Through a Moving Window

The soliloquy was going
almost as fast as the booze
evaporated
when the car flipped twice
into air-
intentionally
he said-
and he followed.
There

winter trails us
into the fast falling night.
and youths in the sea
swim around me
like snow next morn.

Four were here,
dissolving our shadows,
camouflaging sunset
we break:

He, his cover.
me to a tea.
he in an alley,
receding over
time
blurred horizons,
a decade past

me too …
and from
Held and holding

Through the city gates we pass
Emperor now
Unempressed, a
Shadow throne.

My right side
Healed
My right side
Held

In dark
magic
no sleeves
