Self-fulfilled prophecy
So I can self fulfill it
candy red devils coming out your mouth,
Ice cold Pepsis on ice silos
and thin coffee straws on the sunshine side,
Cold years and warm months
With nothing but the sound of glass
On chalk, and chalk on sidewalks
And written script, habeas corpus
on the writ, shit
Self-fulfilled prophecies coming out your mouth
nothing time zone flying
and zone flying sickness
On the metered Fahrenheit outside my window;
and dreams pieced together
by dug out buildings and sandlots,
and drowned seas of frogs
combined by the air level and ocean level
Mountain level slipping through the silk
Winded, laundry threaded on the wire
Outside my window
And self dreams with the glistening of LED blue lights
Creaking metal swings
And unfulfilled things
and half-eaten sandwiches on the half-side
Full moon and half-gallon of milk
Spilled on the ink-sludge thing
This thing coming out your mouth
are years catered by empty baskets
And basket cases
Weaved into the sight of silent winter skin
And pinched leather gloves on the sidewalk;
and nothing out your mouth
So I can self fulfill it
