Metamorphosis
In those eyes oceans lose their
way.
Music breaks into a new note: home
finds its hue. Roads stop
competing.
Even loneliness finds something to
laugh about. Tonneau is tested. The
rumble seat holds empty bags. Proud
as pismires we flourish in
formicaries.
Even in transactional frameworks
certain
pacts are clued onto the unknown.
Chasing new curves results in rent.
Is
transformation always positive?
