in cyberspace, there lived two thieves.
(this story doesn't end like you think.)
their names were Buddha and Jesse James.
one night, they had too much to drink and rewired
(wrong) each other's brains. in their dreams,
they could be anything: (firefly ghosts or chameleon kings,
circus clowns, dancers, cicada's songs.
at last they were rabbits made of rain
devouring wolves made of flames.)

but when they awoke and things were the same,
they went back to meditation and robbing trains,
returning to their old routine dreams.

only autumn leaves know what this means.
