I met a man
in a bar. A gold bar, an ingot in which we were encased. Being a soft malleable
metal we made small incremental movements and eked out space for further more
elaborate movements, gradually making ourselves at home. Any old road, he told
me in, the small cave we had formed, about the time he tripped up a child in
Autumn mist. It - he reported – stared back at him, incredulous, in uniform, in
anxieties. Brown leaves – he told me drooling – fell about them in the moments
stasis, in the formaldehyde freeze. “Happy times” he said, pressing against the
newly carved space.
