You, the only loving existence I fear must promise me something on this night of death and all it holds
Don't let them take me away wrapped in showy, caste lined folds. Throw me in a pit and let me burn myself
Yell and break things where they gather and do as they are told
Single file with tears streaming, even in death they won't look at me
too many people will show up and say things
Interrupt them and remember us cutting off sentences in mid-air diffusion is real and will merge inter-continental heavy breathing
Let it
.
Dying is like finding out you're allergic to your favorite brand of cookies
It doesn't always get to the termination of existence part
The world will still be filled with oreos you'll never taste the world your
World will still exist you will breathe in
And forget to breathe out leave the bread out the mould will look like skin
.
Where are you tonight my love
I see you behind eyes that can't seem to close they
Try with all their might.
Are you swimming away in somebody's head
Wrapped, close, snug in bed
Away from things done and said
In embraces distance faithlessly kept
Safe for you to hold again?
Or are you with me, here tonight?
Thinking of the firelight
Light that hides bodies together
Never a fetter, never a fetter
Nestled in the mountains deep
Did she murder you in your sleep?
Or does she swear forever to keep
Your dreams and hopes and secrets
Bound
What then will you see
If you ever run to ghosts of me
Will we pause on lips unseen
Bite and rip at button dreams
Or
Let us loose in the form of a
Scream
That ceases nevermore?
And as I use these words to play
Dance and say things I won't say
My city goes hungry each day
.
Brown
My sister's shirt lifts up
A five year old belly as testimony
The melting pot
Chocolate
Stuck between your lips
Far
Brown is too in the middle to die
Pianos bought and sold
Played in silence
Black keys, white keys hold.
Together.
Brown wood, Brown hands
A home for earthworms
Skin cut with blue
Blue nightlights show me you
Brown, angry, laughing
Little to do
