the cult drive into the service station
into the multi-story carpark into plastic and tarmac
emitting their own atmosphere of heat

the cult sits at a picnic bench where there is a wood
which is to say about ten trees to unhinge
the hot day like a coat under the canopy
/
the cult queues at the snack bar at the snack bar

little paw reaches through like marmalade
unable to touch but felt in a way that feels
/
the cult discovers the plants in the hanging basket
are ventriloquists voicing the words of god which drip
into the soil and flowers and leaves become thick with god
knows what
/

algorithm which gives birth to a forest
already burning
/
a world organised to burn
