Woke up commuted fell silent. And guess. And fell. And silent. Almost on
purpose now there will and fall a self dying like going into dying. Like
silent. But also there being last Tuesday. Last Tuesday there being there
to run there above as were falling. As in falling from windows in bodies as
soon became known as. As Living Wage. Jobs. Invisible having voted in
the morning. Famous now nothing having voted having gone to work forgiven
everything woken up. Of that world in selves of waking up. In the morning
that chance gorgeous edifice. What says forgive us wake up and tosses its
falling from watching out windows. From windows fire from the ice glass of
falling from stories. From falling from the window of water in attitude
peaceful in falling as a no name attached to anything. What uncurled
commute to the names from anything. Nameless and fallen on the first day
uncurled to fall to commuted to silent.
