Done Deal by David Avila

Done Deal
By David Avila

there isn’t a way to see in a dark
that knows itself too well while in the world
a turning back of the inner clock’s heart
-from a place out of which I could yet part
in that space the tail decided to curl
a done deal representing its pearls
~a just foundation laid only for me
awakening from the play of my dreams
playing for keeps inside a world unknown
pulling out the plug from the man of stone
-eyes seeing the play from a stage that gleams
still I will have left this world all alone
