&,&,&,&,&,         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.        &,&,&,&,&,
