Mirror of Questions


The bottomless blackness of myself

said the old man

leads me to wonder about you

and the others. Where

is the token for the ride?

We have it, the blue man

has it, the troll

under the street has it,

the man in the tree

has it. I mean the thing

that unlocks, I mean how

do you get back, and how

touch? I’m alone, leaning

toward the lamplight, but I can’t

see. I’m happy that

you’re here. I’m a boy

walking alone, leaves drifting

all of a sudden

down all the streets.
