sitting
on a parking garage roof
watching the world
spin itself
into a stupor

was in a hurry
to wait
now i am in a hurry
to find something to do
but for all the gears
screaming
there seems to be
no traction
to be gained
in the viscosity
of perilous nothing

so i am sitting
on a parking garage roof
watching the end of the world
unfold

in real time
