rest-less, none for the wicked girl
with twitching legs
being called to sunshine and tulips
when there is only night-time
to be found

no sleep, the time set aside for
late night musings and
frantic pen scribbles
scratching the hours into cardboard

philosophy talks and
whiskey sips and promises
to save our livers tomorrow,
tomorrow

photographs are strung on fishing wire
criss-crossing over horizon lines
and in each picture the likeness of a ghost
two eyes, two hands
one open mouth frozen in timely utterances
of absolute fact

the windows are fogged
the sun is coming up
