agitated fingers
long and slender
twist the helix of time.
these are two roads
that never cross,
but call his mental state
a bad case of identity theft.
they incriminate his coat
as evidence against him.
he refuses to part with it,
lest we discover the truth
locked in to the fibers
of the fur trim he strokes at his neck.
