DIG WHERE YOU STAND
they said
I STAND
to the chin
in old age
The spade trembles.
Pain
here
there
The pill organizer
a small calendar
of survival
Sunday:
refill the week
The circadian wheel
tightening
Days
where years once were
Comrades
already gone
A well-earned death
they call it
Among the few remaining:
fatigue.
a restless heart
Old CT –
the spindle-shaped
IRON-CURTAINIST –
still himself.
Only now
aching
in his Soviet body
UP
Once
the measure
of beauty
In Shitville
among the grey
in the influenza queue
her face tightened
into a death mask
The eyes
already elsewhere
SK
elder of the Alienated
Facebook survivor
Reduced
to the concentrate
of intellect
Denser.
Thicker.
Viscous.
Still himself
A nihilist
to the tip
of his bohemian nose
Philosophy
in YouTube links
Comfort
without relief
Hades
smelling of oil
On P1:
AI will determine
the moment of death
with greater precision
My mouth dries
The mouse arm protests
And the metabolites
begin
their report
