Time Capsule


I watch grainy
black and white
dead people.

Colorless people
dancing around
to static trumpets
played by dead
colored jesters
all with lively
smiles and breath
oblivious to all
but the moment
they are frozen in.  

Gut rot punch and
hand rolled cigarettes
gulped and burned
in excess almost
as if knowing
they were being
immortalized.
