Fear of Time

The tissues of fate  
moved by wind on April’s balcony  
sweep the hands privately 
and though we cannot island, connected 
to racist rapist thieves 
entitled brutes  
dumb boys dumb women

we find a way to interwind  
like two frogs on a leaf  
and whisper, laugh and laugh  
real happy and real  
sad in the sad extreme:

I am a barrel of gasoline 
deep in the arctic 
its significance unrealized.

I am a flame new to the arctic. 
Soon you will realize.
