“Difficult to believe what hurts so much
when the cement truck bounces you
off a tree trunk
is not solid knocking solid
but electron cloud repulsing electron cloud

which only seems to him
you've got trauma to the head
or were already loco
either way problemo.

which are mirrors showing everything
on fire in black water...”
