First there is a road
climbing past sandstone cliffs
and parked beside it this car
trunk open to the wind
and I'm standing there
left hand in pocket
right hand shading eyes
watching the sky
changing colors
metal red blue gray
and this sound
in my mind
also like metal
turning ON
as karma/joy/rage
(a thick warmth moving through)
turns this scene
slightly black and white
at the edges
so that I must breath
once quickly
get back in the car
and drive slowly
away.
