again again
he was becoming
ambivalent it didnt matter whether the
sentence was a cry in the dark or letters on the darkness asif expressed by a
label marker on embossing tape etched
sharply distinctly
IF SOMEONE IS GUILTY OF SOMETHING
THEY EASILY ACCUSE OTHERS OF IT
someone
who
guilty of something
what
the cry repeated
echoed
the text went round and around
asif on a stock market ticker tape display
since the dream was his invariably
the clues laid with him asif he were some mystical detective
the screen on the back of his
eyeballs ran black black black black black anthennearlysimultaneously he
heard and read the sentence
the voice wasnt his not hearing himself as he spoke or hearing
himself recorded by a machine
it seemed feminine to him
it wasnt spoken by his feminine side
the script was in capitalised block
letters print not cursive
asif a fortune from a Chinese cookie turned into a clam buried in muck
and mud at the bottom of the sea
alien
flat unreflective
black
maybe who or what wasnt important
what
was important was the criminals nature and their criminal intent and maybe as blatant as the sentence sounded
and appeared or appeared and sounded it seemed the former that if his head was on a swivelhis eyes
peeled he could recognise the
personality preceding the crime and avoidgo wide around them
hints and traces are always present
if he was watching
so he didnt have to later mutter Hindsight
is 20/20
he everyone
had been through 2020
he was willing to let it go and watch
it slowly disappear in his rearview mirror
