"further intimations of the void"

 

"further intimations of the void"
2.17.21

The dude at the convenience store
perched on the edge
of the darkness that's
swallowed most of the city says

Skor bars have been
selling well today.

Why's that?
Why toffee and chocolate
as Houston freezes to death
and goes without water?

I didn't ask him,
but I should have.

Same reason, probably,
that I bought these two beers
and drank them
back to back.
