This is me when my co-worker talks about hockey for 100th time in one day.
He was staring into the night sky as it bled
from its womb lessons in the form of beauty.
His eyes wide shut, having been stapled closed
by mother nature’s nurturing touch.
His mind as still as the carnage we ceremoniously deploy
into boxes, that are then later concealed.
Six feet far from our tormented souls.
Oh hail all things seen
one day will fade and never be seen.
Oh hail all things seen
one day will fade and never be seen.
His possessed mouth began to utter
possessed by the magic exuded by the invisible angel.
Illuminated by the glance of that unselfish king
that reigns only at night.
Then it all ended and all that was left,
was a face that seemed to have been
supernaturally reconstructed into a smile.
Residues of this impermanent event.
And I stood addled
