slept in the hostile woke in the hostile
buffalo nickel on a hard rail
glooming more and more the gesture
jackals behind every door
midnight moonlight with too much metal in it
when will it be cowboy again?
lariats of oxygen and a straight shot
word word word not this crawl space antler
cowering
I am myself as potent as a bran flake
let’s heave that cocoon and see where it lands
