In the fevered pulse of seconds...

In the fevered pulse of seconds
there is no place for a drowning word.
I push my way toward it through
the barbed wire of houses.

It flees, and the sunset grows sterner,
reluctant to let me pass.
Again and again, I search the sky
for some kind of fracture—

but escape is misplaced.
Somewhere near the warm pulse
there is a place for me too.
