Charborg Head With Thought
(A Pinback Reference)

A lugubrious silence punctuated,
a four year old girl's foot steps
in the mausoleum of my nasal passages.

Being sick on a summer's day is being
glued to a exotic cardboard getaway,
you're transfixed in one dimensional beauty
inaccessible.

A cat tail swabbing of the mind
uncovers more dust. At least you
can write a few things in that layer
of dead time.

If you remind yourself to write in your
diary every day and continually forget
to do so, don't these ethereal pages amount
to a rather grand metafictional novel?
