(Dedicated to Charlie Kaufman)

Red glare vapors
Blurred screen
Black water shimmers
Puddled reflections

Creaking stairs
Vintage sepia
Motes of dust
On a weary counter

Scented words
Muffled, drifting
Sweet crumbs
From crinkled paper

Hush, voices
Dimly aware
Suppressing tongues
For eloquent silence

Anomalous convention
Auricular bond
Stop action sequence
To a robotic song

CK meditation
Puppet hearts
Urgent yearning
In a focused lens
