Horse in QuicksandBy Mark Laliberte

spent all night tickling
avatars, on a mission to unravel time Live life to its end!
Dying is a business masked by politeness put head to pillow
one night marries into next a horse in quicksand Ruin of a storefront
you find rich men attractive, but ask: at what cost? Where did today go?
Speed is also a pleasure to distract the soul engine of plenty
search the cloud for answers to life’s stormy questions syllabic outbreak
