We buy fresh bagels from the corner store where swastikas
are spat from areosols. I sit in the bar sipping iced white
russians, trying to score but nobody's pushing. And everyone
looks at everyone's faces, searching for signs and praying
for traces of a conscience in residence, are we sitting on
a barbed wire fence chasing the clouds home?-- http://ananke.amu.edu.pl/~grendel ----------------------
