raze my mind has begun
to place words
in the mouths
of strangers.

they strain to speak
what i want to be true.

and_so a grey-haired
ghost in a windbreaker
no sane person would wear
on a night this warm
talks with a woman
who's walking her dog,
and i hear him promise:

"we're gonna get
fucking peace"

though i know he's
saying no_such_thing.
