GAME OVER

7:47

That which passes for blood these days:
Patients static while others, shunted
oftentimes tardy waistcoats
echolocate and free-fall in to
oncoming traffic
triage
webs of incandescence

High frequency alarms
sub urbane squawks shouldered
to pavement, young thugs

A caller on the line,
short-breathed with
urgent tonality
:

"here
is bleeding
here"

Vendor hums harmonics
restless feet pattern in curb slush
makes a bee-line
twine parchment and cosines
last wills
at last
no more
at last
ex-aspirates
:

"you weren't played
he's strict rules man
game on, he says
or was it? game
overman
had six on the edge
now it's
overman"

7:49
Slides on the facedown
slip shouldered
to pavement, young thugs
