Event Particle (6)
Fragments from the clouds of rust that fall away from imploded stars arrive with the wind that comes hissing in fingers through the windows bringing a virus that replicates in the light bulbs that hang overhead from wires. Now there is something pulsing in the shovel against the window and its pompadour of snow.

"clouds of rust" - lovely
I really like "the wind that comes hissing in fingers." Great images throughout.
thanks for the reads and comments. i appreciate them. working with this tiny form is an interesting constraint...it puts alot of pressure on imagery in part because it creates negative space. i suppose they're like poems that you can deny are poems if anyone asks you. poetry? not me...
