Shake hands with the manager.
Shake hands with the manager.
Shake hands with the manager.
Shake hands with the manager.
Hushed voices.
It could be them,
moving inside the apartments.
I hear them now but there is no one.
I got into the lift.
It began to move.
The flashing numbers.
Ones and zeros.
Zeros and
zeros.
All the way up.
And at the top I found a scanner.
I found the scanner's surface.
Quiet.
Smooth.
Dimensionless.
Alien.
And inside there was a flittering light.
Burning through
time.
Hues and intensities.
This was a strange house.
Its energy spreading out across the
entire city.
Arthritic structure.
The one-way glass.
Hushed voices,
moving inside the apartments.
I hear them now but there is no one.
I am a descendant among others.
All the things they tell us.
All the lies they told us.
Stranger,
you did not abandon a foolish fellow.
Who are they?
What do they want with me?
The flashing numbers.
A concierge asleep behind
the eyes.
Cruel and unsympathetic.
This was a strange house.
Its energy spreading out
across the entire city.
The thought of our garden.
Glowing in my dream.
A light emanating
from her body.
Her breathing like waves crashing against a rock.
Expanding continents on either
side.
The city between us.
Her bedroom and her room inside the city.
Hidden in plain
sight.
We will not.
We will never fade.
Look down.
Discrete technology.
I left you sleeping.
No sign.
Expanding continents on either side.
The city between us.
Hues and intensities.
Hues and intensities.
Shake hands with the manager.
Teehee.
Shake hands with the manager.
Teehee.
Shake hands with the manager.
Teehee.
Shake hands with the manager.
Teehee.
Shake hands with the manager.
Teehee.
Shake hands with the manager.
Teehee.
Shake hands with the manager.
Teehee.
