cad red light from a tube that’s open so still and quiet and the lights are broken pigment eyes while you lie in the open i'll shift the tone till the sky is broken

it was dim and i was patient

they're gonna teach me how to beg instead of gnawing at my leg , again. i want it so much it ain't fair. but the taste it takes it takes me there.

you know what it feels like?

you open the door and it's so loud. it's like nothing before, they let you in somehow. the yard's brown and the sun's too bright. on the skyway they built a fence so high from the old place where the breeze rolls in. it feels like i'm on fire.

does it matter?
