"Beetle" written Oct. 25th, 2004

The weary ones walk backward

into themselves

        Not evil, in itself but when combined
                                with a mind
d.e.a.d set on bringing down the whole
            fucking
circus

When it’s just a little too
When you’ve taken one look too many            the eyes
        the eyes can almost
            see
All of fortune
All your antiquity has assumed
perched itself at the window of your castle, your tower

of isolation........                            ..........    and fear

And histories come, too, to prove that nothing
shifts but
nothing but       
        maybe the weather.

Circles going
everything comes round again.

Mostly,     it    depends    on    which    side    you spoon    your     soup    from

how the pickup
sticks
    will
        tumble and  
    cross
        each------other

I only wish I were so brave as you      
                            You, beetle you, escarabajo
