Stream of Consciousness
s.o.c 5
son of sapiens asks if i can sleep i ask you this sapiens i am son of megalodon i stream through salt i and my siblings sapiens names fossils i could not sleep then and i could not sleep in the womb because my blood longed to drink my blood and i cannot sleep out of my mother water my eyes permanently open peering into the depths because to orca crocodile dolphin seal to all i am prey yet sapiens paints me as predator as he severs my fins from me and lets me sink into sea intestines and sapiens says it is okay because i feel no pain as if the water does not sear my flowering wounds and sting my gills and i do not lie there gasping because of his lies so i ask you son of sapiens if you can sleep and if so how can you sleep?

Union Square Concert
lighted portals in concrete walls show humans floating within, shadowed by sheer drapes rippling in a soft night breeze . they ruffle and billow around human heads like cotton puffs . eyes occasionally peek out the glass panes, pushing aside the white veils. music drifts upward , and wafts above the avenue , a saxophone brewing blended notes , an impromptu concert in Union Square.
