imagine a planet

where you step
from pitch black cold
into sudden scorching sunlight

messenger touched mercurius
by an inch to take a closer look
at the unseen side

only to find
craters scarps and rays
blowtorched by a nearby sun

meanwhile on earth

russian economy held out
i was still looking
for my copy of hegels
phänomenologie des geistes

saltasha bought me
a quelle sweatshirt
in state department store

gum in the heart
of moscow
