half_light
raze
remnants
of
what
last
night's
rain
wrought darken
the
dirt
and
stain
the
tarmac
with
memories
of
whatever
we
were
when
dreams
buckled
our
knees
and
bent
us
into
less
familiar
shapes
.
a
parked
car
takes
your
trunk
away
, bisects
your
body
with
its
red
gloss,
and
in
the
soft
haze
of
half
-light
i
take
you
for
a
left
-leaning
man
caught
mid-sway,
a
reluctant operative
filling
your
cognitive dossier
with
whatever
you
think
you
see
in
me
.
i
could
fill
a
few
sovereign states
with
all
i've
found
in
you
,
and
you
aren't
even
what
i
think
you
are
.
