Saturday Afternoon
-cross section of a saturday afternoon-the radio sings to me, hears the end of the world
between the stabs of needles and powder,
I have set sail on a river paved south
riding down a little notebook life
of ambiguity and fog.
flying down interstate five, I leave my life
to the ice pick tongues of dead men,
packs and bags, deadweights and deadwants,
crumbling into a sea of diamonds
and blinking out like last year's christmas bulbs
remember:
write me a letter sometime
when I'm in that cubicle of infinity,
that desert life of dry tongues
and powdered words,
when I've become an afterthought
a home lost in the hills
of ambiguity and fog.
the radio sings to me,
catch me, oh spiral arm of galaxy.
