Noise - Dustin Vado

I left my nails embedded in the chalkboard mid hopeless proof

        Sheets of toilet water hail gunfire static like golf balls on aluminum carports

Interrupting

Sleep

        While awake

            during days of trance in buildings

while the sun roams free

revolving our destinies

            in elliptical smashes

around

        infinity

        again

                and

          again,                                                talking over myself

just like the last time it happened

        next year.

Sheets of toilet water hail gunfire static like golf balls on aluminum carports

                Did I already say that?

        Yesterday last year or next millennium

            written by aliens

who stole my soul 

                from Google...

I am not distracted

    carbon copied, my card number inscribed

        on single use slips

                for five bucks a month

                    fall from pockets

                        one rock of hail at a time

                            melting

                                on aluminum carports

                                    to puddles of toilet water

                                        flushing the other way

based on whose side of the world has a bigger balance

An echo of a tear under a carport makes 

the sound of a string snapping.

Confused 

    by hail in summer and sun at night,

I am shot by prism arrowheads

my keyhole wounds bleed

all the colors to cement

a drip that deafens the streetlights.
