HEAVY WITH WEIGHT

but
now

ignorance flown banners 
stain the innocent sky

&
i
look
down
the
sofa
cushions

to see 
if i cant find
where progress 
went to hide

heavy with weight


~


i find a peanut

&
hear a bassline
in the plumbing

i find a pen lid

&
hear horns celebrate
a hesitant dawn

i breath in orange
i exhale dank swamp

these days
its electric smoke now
&
my coffees in bamboo

all heavy with weight


~


& 
everyone i know with kids -
i tell them their kids

have to save us

us animals 
cord cut
from 
the cemetery forest
& the murder plains

& they nod

heavy
with
weight


~


&
the madman
who brings them down
& 
turns the pressure up

well
hes as laminated as anyone

but peeling
from the heat

heavy with the weight
