Phoenix
we are
all in seats
pushing garbage
and trash
and pretzels
fall out through the cracks
while beauty comes aboard
and the whales
all surface
at the same time
and moment in time
my rushed heart
bleeds out and through my veins
heat flows
down, through the ceiling
and nothing in the air
is soothing
while the cold,
all tied up in gasoline,
waits, expensively,
in holding
in waiting
we all scurry about
in circles
and breathe
we breathe
the cloth
and clothes
and tables.
