electric origami



sshh....


In the wake of this genial
election - like in the
wake of a warm hello fuck -
it's maybe better just
to say nothing at all for a
time. Lie back and
light a cigarette, keep it
short on words for a
little while. Watch the blue
smoke rings spiral
up towards the ceiling.
Float. Sink back into the
pillow and hold your
breath. Wait until tomorrow
for post-coital introductions.

And if. It still.
Troubles your conscience,
unduly. Awake.

Take your reservations into
the kitchen for morning toast.
Recriminations and coffee.
