scanning obits
obligatory purgatory
don’t want to miss anyone
why are so many dying by
their own hands? why so
many 1950’s birthdates? (duh)
scanning obits for ourselves
one day last year october 24th
to be exact opened the paper
+heart fell flopping like a tuna
to our townhouse floor left tracks
of blood+gore
there was my brother! longhair
flapping glorydays over no one
gave a heads up how about a fucking
heads up people!
how about a guidepost or 2 i mean
what exactly is next ???? or must we
continue to navigate without lights
these longish corridors?
yesterday the power went out at the
Eaton’s Centre but the 100 meter
xmas tree did not !
you cannot
extinguish us
like fleas mister
or maybe you can
