was a flash of
the essence of something
lasting as long as a spark would
ESP cologne
barely nebulous
in the living room air
& it was located
at my best guess
just east of the sofa
where the rug delineates
the international waters
of coffee table island
~
it delivered
like scheduled mail
the heady smell of glossy plastic
of an action figures inky black legs
& the sliver of sunlight
silver white
on a saturday morning staircase
& the momentary lightness
& the momentary lightness
of the absence of tension
like only a new toy could mask
