Midnight's Erratic Nature

With a reluctant carelessness she
confesses her criminal intent
that unsettling psychotic urge to be caught

her bare feet patina on the warm asphalt
midnight's erratic nature of duality
emanating a calm explosive aurora of possibility

her crown of streetlight glow
mystics somewhere finding a stiff visitor
beneath chaste robes

a calliope of constellations crashing and
distant sirens tickle her giggling throat
trash cans and deep shadows

wandering eye of unknown thrilling chance
her underwear swinging from my mailbox
to a moonlit waltz.
