I drown 04:35
2.
Late hours 03:45
here i lay, watered with crystalline desires stale-steaming lost in previous words a full hand of frost bitten fingers rest inside of my mouth at the bottom of the dive-bar floor. it doesnt matter if this eyes are open or shut. and my eyes are bright or not. and however this night wont end this time i ll slip away it seems as if, through all these barren days, there is no room for young hearts like me. i take the last call for a drink, bars closing down where are we going? where is home? i can t go far, i had a rough night, i am tired.
3.
one day you ll be blind when the whites of your eyes are tattooed with bright lines a flower bed beneath a window sill where red painted flowers grow in scorched earth tears. black. water them dripping wet. what is this life, every map is written in a tounge i cannot read. and i wish one day you ll be blind. that you beg you cannot see. when bright lights in your eyes, a soft cotton fog dig a dozen holes, purging you from your hopes. this world was made for you, not for me.
4.
I sleep 03:14
5.
the same ocean under a blazing sun shimmers like diamonds. the same bluest sky with clouds glimmer like silver. but when you talk the sun is yours and when i hear the sea bed is mine. i am the non iridescent gull beside your feet with a chipped beak and crooked neck my feathers place ripples in the water as i stumble forward your hands curl tightly around my wings so i cant move away i try again and again to escape, but my aging skin keeps wrapping me in, singing in a blistering harmony with the end.
