Zipcar Date

zip car date
she takes me there with her calm tone
we're in this forever, together alone
she doesn't like being touched
so we hold phones,
bluetooth to mouth
like Tristan and Isolde
we're trying a new
socially conscious bar
where the waiters are paid nothing
cocktails, recycled
going to her apartment
she puts on a map of the world
I touch her in all the
trouble spots
getting a text from zipcar central
overdue on the current rental
drone deposits me in
detention for debtors
it all starts again with
the bike-share cycle

Non-Binaries

Non-Binaries never wrong nor right  neither black nor white  always poor framing  truth escapes while waiting    you I can’t deny I can’t explain “I” there’s another dimension  we’re always missing    easy solutions feel good  crushing doubts with boots  if nature only gave us straight lines  if god was on our side    it’s never green nor orange  look to the forests  subtleties you miss  haunt dreams in an embrace    not those ones and oh’s  didn’t write the code  swallowing contradictions  before they explode

  Mayor McGuffin We are products of our times  these thoughts aren’t mine  everything passes through us  from sewers to the divine  I vibe on your signal  you wave you particle  merge into a molecule  divide for reaction deaf dumb and blind  slaves to the grind  compressed coal hearts  exploited diamond mines we see through the veil  dancing snake-tailed  impatient for the end  skipping enlightenment  I drive this carcass  despite warnings  from weather service  to deliver you a package
