the heavy drone of machine movement
caught us
coming or going,
 
put us out
in night alone.
 
I took up exercises
of the past,
thinking through the days
 
never knowing or believing,
just bangbangbang
of gears,
a kind of falling apart sound,
loose as us.
 
and tilt,
tumbling over the hills,
facing a mirror,
confused eyes waiting.
 
 
and the machine
coughs home
 
this time.
