winding roads
in eve with twists
from shadows of trees
he seemed lonely
with heart atop mountains
in dire innocence
we swam our seas
vacationing in toxins
satan’s sin seemed fluorescent
with tips like cherries
eyes like lightning
wading in fear
a notion of this
lost in bliss of frozen tears
years in end
creating coals we walk
jagged edges and broken rocks
throwing hearts in rapids
whirlpools twined with tornados
but toxic fuels
and we move like fluid
in and out and all together
