Gramophone Days

Dying sunset in the park...

Watching lovers stroll in their cocoon–
hands entwined.
The world; crushed filament in their palms.

Gazing at the old maids puffing smoke,
rattling wheeze rambling in their lungs–
oblivious of contagion’s smothering reach.

Warped trees in some Picasso dream;
all angles, lights, and epiphanies.

Cars thrum like distant capillaries;
rustling, purposeful metronome flow.

Steadily turning towards another day,
spinning record of humanity.
