The ancestral fart.

Stumble, rumble, noxious fume.

Wincing...a tear drops!

 

Wincing...a tear drops!

It hurts to wear tiny shoes.

Never mind! Tango!

Never! Mind tango:

sliding through the center point,

vanish and return.

Warm wooden sound enter

a vague fleeting memory

then only silence

 

then only silence

up ahead, the lights still shine

down below, darkness
