astrology in confined spaces
the
bubbles in the paint showing
bad tidings ahead. our limbs are
sore from falling. our necks
craned towards
dull windows,
the pain mixing
with interpretations;
on days like these even
bad things seem worse. even
the unlikely is certain:
there are mice in the walls
watching like secret agents;
our phones are listening but
nothing else is. no,
no one else is.
the breakdown of practice
and nothing comes from the speakers.
everyone
stitches odd glances here and there –
was this the
intent? is
this what we’re here for?
this nothing?
this no-one?
the emptiness intentional,
the pauses bleak and earnest,
the eternity of looking for
an end never in sight,
a beginning never begun;
a performance with no
actors; only bewilderment –
only wild silence.
