the days last cigarette

by Stuart Shilton

now it seems clear to me
that even glass bends light

smoke rises and rain falls
laws of the heavens and the earth

men fall like rain putting out
fires only to rise again as smoke

twisting to the heavens like
some exotic dancer

we are only done when the smoke leaks out
to the heavens without its human load

once the fires burnt and the
smoke has risen

darkness closes in
