Dust off the bottom of the sky

Transparent
So as not to confuse
The human mind
With the stuff of uncommon
Nostalgia

and strong convictions, I have
lived among the ever-changing crowd
that is always the same.
I must have died overnight,
and now my wings are
flapping in my own face.
I used to be an owl,
a night owl, to be sure

I’m living at the Edge of Graffiti
And yet I still survive
Because I walked across the line
Separating me from the rest of mankind
You can see me out here

In a light wind

Scattered all over the heavens
It looks like God got lit up
