the gas line is leaking, the bird is gone from the
cage, the skyline is dotted with vultures;

soot.
I walked miles through the city and recognized
nothing as a giant claw ate at my
stomach while the inside of my head felt

young young young, only wanting the Word,
going mad in the streets and in the bars,
brutal fights, broken glass, crazy women
screaming in
your cheap room,
you a familiar guest at the drunk tank, North
