¨&¨¨&¨&¨¨& in a black rubbery sleep i dream about &¨&¨&&¨&&¨
¨&&¨&&&&¨& cold boiling asphalt and &&&&&¨&&¨&
&&¨&&¨¨¨&& crimson emergency flares... &¨¨¨¨&&¨&&

&&&&&&¨¨¨¨ they were tearing down statues, and &&&¨&¨¨&¨¨
&¨¨¨¨¨&¨¨¨ bellowing their manifest, in the rain, &¨¨&&&¨&&¨
&&¨¨¨¨&&¨¨ in the dark, &&¨&¨¨&&¨&
¨¨&¨¨¨&¨&¨ &¨&&&¨&¨&&
&¨&&¨¨&&&& and something followed me out, a ¨&&¨¨&&&&¨
&&&¨&¨&¨¨¨ yearning. a memory of being touched by &&¨&¨&¨¨¨&
¨¨¨&&&&&¨¨ a ray from a raspberry sun. still ¨¨&&&&&¨¨&
&¨¨&¨¨¨¨&¨ there, everything would be gritty and ¨¨&¨¨¨¨&¨&
¨&¨&&¨¨¨&& full of tar. rain upon it. but then a ¨¨&&¨¨¨&&&
&&&&¨&¨¨&¨ few bright and colorful anomalies. and &¨&¨&¨¨&¨¨
&¨¨¨&&&¨&& a promise for more. ¨&&&&&¨&&¨
&&¨¨&¨¨&&¨ &&¨¨¨¨&&¨&
¨¨&¨&&¨&¨& like waking up with a business card in &¨&¨¨¨&¨&&
&¨&&&¨&&&& your pocket... ¨&&&¨¨&&&¨
&&&¨¨&&¨¨¨ &&¨¨&¨&¨¨&
¨¨¨&¨&¨&¨¨ a feather boa wrapped around a velvet ¨¨&¨&&&&¨&
&¨¨&&&&&&¨ lizard, surfacing for milliseconds at a &¨&&&¨¨¨&&
¨&¨&¨¨¨¨¨& time, calling, tugging at my arms. &&&¨¨&¨¨&¨
¨&&&&¨¨¨¨& begging me to sink back down and be ¨¨¨&¨&&¨&&
&&¨¨¨&¨¨¨& with them, with their kind. easy to get ¨¨¨&&&¨&&¨
&¨&¨¨&&¨¨& washed away from the tether, from the &¨¨&¨¨&&¨&
¨&&&¨&¨&¨& way back up. &&¨&&¨&¨&&
&&¨¨&&&&&& ¨¨&&¨&&&&¨
&¨&¨&¨¨¨¨¨ &¨&¨&&¨¨¨&
¨&&&&&¨¨¨¨ but i cannot go. the consequences would ¨&&&&¨&¨¨&
&&¨¨¨¨&¨¨¨ be too large. especially since i'm in ¨&¨¨¨&&&¨&
¨¨&¨¨¨&&¨¨ the work mill and they've got their &&&¨¨&¨¨&&
&¨&&¨¨&¨&¨ eyes on me already. the feeling will &¨¨&¨&&¨&¨
&&&¨&¨&&&& wane, and i will miss it, and cease to ¨&¨&&&¨&&&
¨¨¨&&&&¨¨¨ understand. like every day. &&&&¨¨&&¨¨
