tetanic tic

any human
on the planet
feels the pulse
the tetanic tic
of a world in conversion_
_war_ ai_violent_hate
land faster than
our feet know how to move
how do we regulate
what regulates itself
without us
we ground
we plant
we shift our weight
into our feet into our legs
and stand

There’s a blaze of light in every word

It doesn’t matter which you heard

The holy or the broken Hallelujah
