If it were possible to arrest the sun,

I would be ignorance counting down

your nameless beasts,

                        the swallowing yellow

of your hair,

                         the slain light

in between trees and radio

static memory.

                                    I freeze.

I am no sunshine

that spreads more beams. I

am no other. I

                         forget.
