watch out, no one is here
to know you —
as daylight stumbles in a wrangle
misgivings and strangulations
encounter the violence

banks of ruin latch against grass
the nightsky opens
like a flower —
minutes gather and become a stranger
as shadows tangle with winter

watch out, no one is here
to believe you—
and the sounds of space unsettle
the intricate weave of light and leaves
as mirrors untangle

moons in lean to hatch a glimpse
the emerging headlights draw
like leering eyes—
creatures and screams unravel in trees
bats and ballads
