Todd Colby's Glee Farm: In Any Case



Dangling time before you

as though the passage of time

were tangible evidence of decadence

appearing now on a soggy paper plate

in a display case. As if.

I'd rather time appear to convulse

elegantly in order to illustrate

the intoxicating effects of smog. Please note:

I am hereby absolved of any reductionism while

sincerely standing on the warm milky streets.

Think about it: all the panic in a day,

all the rotations of blood through

a thick body on a hot morning,

all the shedding

of hands onto other hands.

We're wearing each other. Vibrating

under the sun disc breathing in the other,

the dust of the other, the cast off parts,

the pure oblivion of sensations that we can't

do without. Anyway, I really like you,

your style, the affection

you show when things turn sour,

and all the other complexities of now.

Perhaps one day we can mistake the sun

for an opening and go there.
