You Like That You Can Make the World

go dark

with your eyes

The moon's a cloud

tonight. Our hair

rains over

a room

Paper's whatever

you fold it into. My bones

they blush

from kneeling for you

Poetica Interruptus

I breathe & my brain goes blue.

It’s such a shitty feeling

remembering you’re alive.

You

so I

quit playing.
