Called Out of Breath

Called out of breath To be over there when Bodies amass and gasp Truncated furloughs Through downtown no dose And beated arms grasp Pointedly for drowning sensation Raised eyebrows at consumption and withdrawal Not content to sit drooping And chalkboard signs spell stupor Porous passion Healing internal wounds Like feather surgeons Taking me back re-membered When all explorations Held their own song
