PRESENT TENSE

I'm on a roll

On the side of the road

People stream by

Going 84

They honk

Screaming epileptic anagrams

Of each other

Sister mother father brother

Friend stranger acquaintance

Thinking they're so different

Or malevolent

Violent or magnificent

Violet,

Or some other color...

But they're all just

- Another

Sister mother father brother

- Reflections of each other

We are ALL happenstance

It's a spiral dance

Just the all that is

In the present tense
