yes the revenge, and the feeling
always the justice, the justice of it
in this realm of
and security in time, the time secure in the knowledge of moments to moment of this now and that now and then there now and these now and those now
there for now and over and later.
Succession in time, passing from point to point and everywhere outside
and everywhere in between,
the rage and the rage of it, none of it, and the unkempt rage at nothing.
nothing's rage there in this, that now, there.
For Justice, for all the
in and along the street, in and along a smooth plastic sidewalk, in and along a pocked rubber street,
and the people now and rubber and the people there plastic and without mention.
Unmentioned there now, that thing, that time to mention
these that still hover over streets of rubber and plastic
builidings of polyplastic polypropylene chemistry sets, these streets pure chemistry sets, organic matter of chemistry sets, these physical manifestations, these indicators
hanging above some street, not cement, not of pavement, of light.
Walking out into the full afernoon, full of light walking out into the full midnight full of light, walking out.
Here, out here, then and there now, full of light and light,
this time light,

moral responsibilities to be full and full of indications
every indication of something full, of somefthing about to empty itself, clearly
pregnant with full time and full and pregnant and giving
birth there in the index, and the birth there, and time there to lose
and to fill full time, just a filling station,
a gas station there, gas there and something is full
and pies in the window

and the street there hanging above the street broken into so many pieces

alongside the street surrounded by sidewalks

eyes were full here of the light, filling up with light
there were her eyes, and time was filling her, and time was full of light again,
and again, and she again, walking the street.


yes there

There was simply a street, in the city, on the corner of which was a gas station, surrounded and dwarfed by tall buildings. Basically the middle of the city. The gas station not offering much of a view of the sky. And it was easy to lose one's sense of direction in the middle of the city. The streets were mostly one way, but clearly, if you were walking, you could go in any direction along the sidewalk you wanted, ostensibly two directions, allowing for a fair amount of wavering in one's walk, whether of the standard variety of ambling or in the other variety of stumbling drunk, the sidewalk still offered only two basic directions, until one came to a corner, and then there were typically only two more directions added to the previously possible two, although on some corners there were even more directions added to the original two possible directions, over and above the regularly two more directions typically added to your available choices, when standing on a street corner.
