Billy X. O’Brien – touch clone


Billy X. O’Brien

touch clone

police pray parade past perception pool people’s
behavior-based decisions.
perception equals
decision-based behaviors.
the circle exists like this story says
prepare policy please appease
this categorization like touch cloned and died into five.
circle’s history was born upon its birth’s lack.
o!  circle will you do not exist only when
it rides rather not upon this human back.
