forbidden thoughts won’t stop me
now deep in the mine palace
a wool blazer in my future?
and what about my face?
no, no,
before a mirror in the mid-dark
simulation and vision
now the fills and infills in features
in beginnings and thens
i’m deep in the mine palace
now
only a few snowberries by the underpass, now
left of the right season
unironic oversize
fits me just fine
