Pulsing, tiny, in
musical blue
minimalism,
fifteen notes, over
and over, march
of a completed
mission. Someone tell
me what I have done.
Comfort me. Hold me.
Tell me. Speak to me
about all of my
spirit and goodness.
Five fat notes scream of
muted decline. Sick
castles, large mansions,
and airplanes full of
evil. I am big,
turning purple, mush
joining rotten plums
in a chorus of
hair-decomposing
death.

I think this is succinct and powerful.
“about all of my
spirit and goodness.
Five fat notes scream of
muted decline. Sick
castles, large mansions,”
