The gift of sand in your eyes - blessed be you who might slumber through thunder.

Uncanny
Shoes stretched out from all of my steps

Skin inside
Sea waves are turquoise muddled and abandon the bones of those they swallow.

Growing
Perhaps I saw you when you swallowed the sun and you plagued the place you called home. I was not your home. Your moon crawled slowly over them while they shuddered to think how you made them believe. I never believed in you.

The shift from birds to bees
My shadows had forsaken the grounds, my blood coursed through the leaves. The golden dew never stayed and the crystal frost never came.

Stasis
My swollen tongue has derived over time and the spacing is deliberate. I've acquired a mind cunning and venomous, ****** for its immaculate canyons. "Welcome to the Lottery," they said, the snares and the eyes were plenty. Restraint and conviction aside, any place outside of my throbbing mess of an entity was nowhere for me to be. But this made me the culprit, the messiah, and the victim. The slayer, the lover, the slain, and the fighter. The refugee, the all-knowing, the patron saint, and the living dead. All of whom could digress that I would never escape such an untimely event. There was no response to my oncoming tidings, biddings, and affairs. Although, I can tell you I was found amongst the flowers and the sewer rats.

Tried and prying
The transformation yields to no one; Sugar cube swallowing to stop the fury and fire dancing. In your black and white blizzard, there is a frenzy. The gray is for all us hollow, burnt and pricked, suffering the Consequence and stepping on the broken glass. You made a home beneath my skin. I was swollen, but not for long. I lived within the sun, the skin, and the soul, It is just now I found that I've been inside of a tornado the entire time. I say, my saving grace, **** me in and spit me out once more, Asphyxiate and resuscitate. The next, you may be unending, on fire. The flowers may grow again in your footsteps. You grow and the world follows. You put the trail through this forbidden wood. I find myself pacing through its evergreen, ever-lost. Your wind whips and the blades of grass cackle beneath the sun, your rays lash and burn and sting. I still don't feel a thing.

Sugar cube swallowing
It is not about pulling your weight (not that there is much to pull anyway)
 You flourish and then you falter and then you are throwing yourself to the shower floor Always 
such a detrimental blinking of eyes (must be a terror to keep them closed) 
Chirping and nuzzling does nothing to ease the swelling from my scalp

. Finger tips graze my hair, lightning froze it to my skull. I just hope you can see me. My morpheus, put me to sleep, My internal ricochet.

When you froze
My cup of tea looks into me and tufts of your hair are in my sink but I don't mind.
