Ex Nihilo

Hailing doxies down sidewalks,
bookend of city's bad infinity

Love, 
like hidden stars
above boulevards'
sterile fire,
swells

Blood spills dark
from starless
heaven's heart 

Women drink
the petrol and
carbon monoxide
of passing cars

Chemical destinies
poisonous and akin
to death by
asphyxiation,
but inviting as
the music and scents
of faraway banquets.
