I'll take you to another dimension
through a dark alley and a hole in the wall
a ray of light which a rat chewed
a grain of sand
would fall through
to a supernova of gushing radiation
tipped back at an angle
a hypotenuse to the sun
flailing arms and
toppled bodies
we run
summertime solstice
toward the moon
suddenly we are in a pool
of dark water
reflection of the moon upon its surface where we brush our hands across it
and bring them to our mouths to drink
but it tastes like champagne instead
and suddenly we are at a jazz club
on New Year's Eve
and the woman is wearing sequins
and we are deaf
