Old Fuel Trailers

 --
run down roll struck out of excuses
for sticking around
I'll hit my teen-snicker age unstuck

out of imagination that cherished
life as a synonym for exhaustion
has not run its course

a shrunken constellation
of conditions beyond
a narrower memory fit to breathe

midsummer shows the dry dark path
circling to lock in
OLD FUELS DIE HARD
