stashed somewhere in the house
made him feel like he could do anything

humble currents bring bountiful
trace elements and
serenity to the shoreline

golden skeleton key
wrapped around your neck
designed to unleash spontaneity

magically vanishes in the feckless wind
inside the madhouse demons slash
and poke with razors and needles
fingerpainting false memories on
invisible doors and lasering
new keyholes with a blazing white light
march two thousand fourteen
