we all have programs of furious tints or puppy glee unknowable in the unthought instinct of deep cave heads touched by ambiguous updates of drab ammos thru school / life / long lonely nights
and this program holds us fast like mental luddites / resistant like steel to cycles of drink and pills and NOs till the program is armour / walls of shaking solitude and inside is powder and dust / egoless and nude
and when it all breaks down ( as it MUST - for PROGRESS ) under heavy pressure of street barometers and unplanned-for stormheads of bad money / bad love / dark sex trails / buried realisation then canwe hold the jigsaw together ?
re-educate and reform the new learned gears to new speeds and new slows to grow into New Me and Benevolent Us that walk out there again under the coy sirens unbroken AND broken with hand-mind grip BOTH stronger and looser worried and strong in new soft shoes andaware they can break AGAIN into bomb piles of homeless brick and they know and touch ( aware and worried ) others in their baby stages with heroic tolerance / owl wisdom
and they are the breakdown saints - tell us by our bottomless eyes
