Terms of Surrender
misted leaves of trees
lilting high conversations
flutter through the ether
butterfly precious and unconcerned
lilting high conversations
flutter through the ether
butterfly precious and unconcerned
neon standing ready yet still
awaiting rainslick urban nights
time and life amplified in
splashing footstep lonely walk
once smoky room now fumbles
smokeless through tribal ritual
bonding under cold cathode light
and colder drinks condensing
lives, truths, and stories to
miniature points of light conversation
diplomats from countries of one
engage in treaties, alliances,
and terms of surrender.
