An Untitled Work on Reminiscing the Taste of Crown Fried Chicken
When I close my eyes I see the pressing heat
But when wind blows frenzied ice comes over me
I have too many thoughts, a thought that hurts
The time I bled, all I did was laugh and
Run away to fulfill this prophecy of self mutilation
I found a place where the silence was a screaming
Grab at the throat, a moment that
Takes away to remember
I don’t remember when you left, but maybe you
Recall pain
There’s a thousand words go unvoiced
But we cannot delegate each star to a planet
You know what you don’t that one day I’ll arrive
On Mars and feel that heart drum beating
Of sun on flesh
There’s a Pair of Eyes I Want to Get Lost Into, But I’m Still Thinking of the Taco Bell Vegetarian Menu;
also known as the immediacy of touch
Time stops with the stroke of hair
I can’t understand anything it’s all become mud
You’re a beautiful grey mess
Stuck to me, I fight
When I try to get you off I flay you with fingertips
Chapped lips ashy hands
Repeat the footsteps, I breathe into your mouth
The reek of garlic
What’s this back and forth ritual?
An offering to intimacy doomed to obfuscation
Innate are the things unknown to me
Like the surface of Venus
Precipitation melts away that tension in my head
My soul
I put my ancestors to rest if they know I’ll be alright
And what becomes of the form untouched by love?
To wither away under the acid rains?
And what do we do when we lose our fingers?
Replace them?
Just things to think about with no answers
The Things in My Head Are Not Real, Except Perhaps the Bitterness of Acetone
i dreamed up a place in time for us to rest our heads
not too far away from here
a place grandma was told about when
she was little
i painted the sky a lacrimal blue
streaks of red screamed
i miss the thought of you and
in this place in time all of you is there
have you ever seen the crash of a wave
devastation crash course there’s
an inevitability that I will tear asunder
pull me away
little man on the moon
the time well poisoned
i hope to dissipate soon
all the memories of me and you
