Twisting Runes

XIX

Could be completion
or the next swirl up
in the spiral. The
Maori know. DNA.
Double-helix.
                               Fear
of vehicles, well-tended.
30 miles-per-hour, pedaling.
The place where Dreamtime
meets Meatspace.
                                            The edge

of the razor. The only
good part.
                            Laughing
in the face of attempted
control. The face, grizzled,
wrinkled, dying, un-
smiling. Wicked.

Watching wickedness
die  & compassionate
   laughter.                      
            Always laughter,
no furrowed browse,
and train horns.

Gabriel has spoken.
Every day the apocalypse
for someone
 
  else.
