Synthetic

The seat is black and thick with plastic pile.

The driver watches traffic on the street.

I run my hand across it for a while,

feeling the heavy pressure of the seat.


Tomorrow’s news is bitter and complete.

A single thread is caught inside a nail.

The dark is deep, the oxygen is stale.
