midnight morning

sharp pin of  wisdom

morning midnight

the empty lots beckon me into

corners

and alleyways

with their height

stab the veil of nighttime

lifting it only briefly

for those with eyes to see

Satan Will Rise

when you go on a walk about the city that you live in

you never know what warnings you'll find

wating in the park

or the restroom of the local bar

and don't forget

the scabies wall
