Over the Bars

In one breath lurched forward
Outside and over the bars I became
The last insignificant thought
Twisted in the sunlight was the moment
Planned to be forgotten
Relying on the strength of
A substance to make sure
Just to make sure
Pretty chains balled into fists
Reconciled to memories
Purely inhabited stretched
Worn so that comfort in pain
Insinuated and mistaken
For something needed, basic
Down to the cellular level
Created in the wasteland
A heart incensed, increased, inflamed
Quickly replaced to make sure
Just to make sure
Reminded by an image
A phantom, a wolf
The flock has passed between
The gulf of reminiscence
To the innocent laughter
To playtime, and fit to be tied
To make sure
Just to make sure
