Cop Car

they wanna pull a dragnet for some missing children

and this longing feels like an aggressive emptiness.

so I wait for them to show up in the back seat of a drown car

and when they come

I think,

'here comes the shit shovelers'.

They speak only in vowels

reaching around with their foul, water-logged flesh

and I wanna consult something that ain't there.


it's reaching up.


Failing.


Falling away towards a vast majority.
