This is

a scrambling
this mix
of nine hundred boys
growling

vacuum-packed

inside me.
In me,

they are all
and all is me

some crawl
from the mirror
two years ago

some jump
from the streets
two years after

violent traffic
in my bowels
honking and beeping
and shouting

vacuum-packed

inside me.
In me,

they explode
and they are me

seconds fluctuate
hours undulate
days hesitate

when speed abandons
and comma's drag
the screaming begins

vacuum-packed.
