Mirror-glass Skyscrapers

Jade suits pitched frameless up the sky

drift all day with sheer weather,

annexed cubes ascend and blend

at chisel points away high

on talc-green scintillant towers,

diurnal float glass apparitions:

through their aspects airliners flow,

their decoration’s anything that happens.

Even their height above suburb

is reflected. Perfect borrowers’ rococo!

Outside, squared, has finally gone in,

closed over like steadying water,

to quote storms, to entertain strapped gondolas

and loose giants swimming in contour.

Inside yearning out isn’t seen;

work’s turned its back on sweat brilliantly—

but when they start to loom, these towers

disappear. Dusk’s lightswitches reveal

yellow Business branching kilotall

and haloed with stellar geometry.
