Memories left by supernovae
Beautiful, colorful
Names like Cassiopeia
Calvera
I fell to your surface
And my matter was rendered almost instantly
Into my surroundings
And we became one
I can tell that I can't leave
I can't reach escape velocity
Half the speed of light
Unfathomable
I am here forevermore
But at least
Your micrometer-thick atmosphere should
Last me a good, long time.

what an amazing example
of natural selection you are
primordial to now
pretty good choices were made along the way
i gotta say
it'd be weird if you had echolocation
or anything like that
probably not that strange
if everyone else had it
but that's not the scenario in my head
it's funny to imagine you as a bat
i think you'd be just as magnificent

typical as it seems
i, too, have moonlit dreams
whereby stars illuminate
the circles under your eyes
and the hands in your pockets
i want to show you a song
as beautiful as you
but my fingers aren't that elegant
yours are
star-shaped shadows behind your back
and birds on your ears
i know you know
what they say
that song
is
beautiful

they cannot keep their head straight
i can't say it's bad
my eyes are closed to listen
eyes clenched shut, fingers spread wide
like light from their teeth
i am drawn to this

O, most wonderful and brittle coffee cup
How I have forsaken thee
For a fortnight 'fore now
My hands became butter under your
Beautiful, wondrous weight
The sound still resonates in my ears
I have broken thee
Aghast, I am
And forevermore
Shall be

it's not pensive
nor is it pondering
the wind
cardinal
red whistle in the trees
it sure is something

I guess, like they say
You don't read between
The lines in the light
Ultraviolet or extra bright
But it's not your fault
Not your fight
Explanations from you
Provide
Insight and guidance
Into why
Why I feel I need to be
Just right
It does make me
Pretty tired

Barefoot, skin sticking
Seriously, I can't pull up
Is it too cold? Like a tongue on an icy pole
Is it hot, melted metal
My soles are melting?
My soul being smelted
To get the good bits, throw the rest
Into the ocean
Shark fin heart
Shark tooth heart
Waste me at every part
This is me at my best, I guess
Not depressed
I just think
A whole lot.

Slow, why are you walking so slow
It's in between
The lines, you're reading it just fine
You're fine, but won't you
Please close the door?
It's cold outside
I can see
The waves are coming from your keys
It's locked, it's cold, but
Won't you come in?
Your fingers line
And twirl, like frost
The cold unfurls
I've come
To you
Please close the window

Window pane rain drop
Drips until the pain stops
Staring out the glass, this gaze
Many days
Breaks the window, shatter, down
Oops
Glass is sand
I can pick it up
Hold it
Let it run through my hand
Stand and melt it, form it back in place
A grand addition to this space
No disgrace, distaste
Not one grain went to waste, with haste
I placed a smile on my face
It's okay
