Five Haicuckoo
1
doesn't tell them of
wound, only realize as he
expires contritely
2
word association a breeze rorschach and awe
3
when you perceive all the demons
invisible to others
snowed under
4
to sell oneself
niche market –
chasing rainbows
5
vicious cycle:
crank music to discern the
garbled words spoken
