hi !
i love my dandelion daydreams that grow on unmarked graves i love dancing with their seedsprout whiteheads in a river of me i love to toy with my dandelion (daydreams) and pretend that each one is the hand of a corpse taking its final (maggot rodden) grip of fresh air.

dandelion daydreams
follow me my little deathling (my tiny frozen flame) let me show you let me make your frozen fingertips- tendrils of falling frost that kiss the ground in a mixture of sky and earth that is both of us (somehow) sit yourself on the pinprick spindril mountains and let me throw myself at you with all my might and maybe you fall from your tallplaces until you realize that unless you hit the ground falling is flying let yourself fly into me let yourself become the monster that you always saw in the mirror scream at me your deathly dialogue. scare me. let all the darkness out of your ashen mouth like a bird running out of air to fly on. expose me to your suffering make me your worldly attachment (i dare you) battle me. exhaust yourself until you realize that i am your arms and i can fight myself forever. fight for your dusty body hope that you can return to it realize, that you cannot. see yourself as a congregation of mud and wind and water. become the flame that set you free. and set fire (the world) that killed you.

frozen flameling
i wasn't tired until you fell into my arms and i wasn't tired until i threw a thousand weightless snowdrops to the ground and i didn't hurt until the first word and now my home is a loud roar of reverberations that pass through me (like a million spoken knives) and i didn't understand pain. Until your somebody stumbled into me and i couldn't let go (because they were made of ash) and i felt the weight of so many somebodies (suddenly) and i began to think that - my existence (the sea the sky and the nothing between) manifested to pulverize the planet with each further strained breath until it can feel each pinprick loss of life it enforces. And maybe my rage forged bellowing stormclouds over deserts or made rivers flow backwards from storm surge (tear driven) but the somebody i'm not and the somebodies i carry will never be more threatening than a fadeaway wind that cries with the lone wolf.

Bitter Breeze
the police radio is screaming like your mother- (never has) but i didn't hear you in the background and when i went to see you you wore a hat to cover the bullet wound above your neck. and you didn't move even when i cried (for you) (because of you) and i cried because death is supposed to be beautiful it is supposed to be a collaboration of fungus and blackness that ends in a teardrop. death is not supposed to hurt (me) it feels like the first time that i fell in love because when he left me a part of me was scrambled into the pinpricks of the night sky (and i haven't been the same) when he left me i couldn't breathe because he could knock the wind out of me with his eyes (stareheavy) and when you left me i couldn't breathe because you were my breath. and because now when i breathe i think of you and my throat betrays me, like your trigger finger betrayed you. friend, please, when i sit above the circle of ash, (that was you) spin yourself around me until once again - you may be (yourself) my lungs.

trauma
i can feel it when you wake up and when you (gaspheavy) walk. i can feel each morning whisper like a lonely star on the arm of a galaxy that ends in your eyes. i can push myself onto your stomach and live there forever and you can struggle against me (but i will always win) i can absorb you. and you like it. i can cry with the pitpatter tear drops of a million raging cloudy (skystreaks) because i am everywhere but you- you- are everything. a beautiful mirror for me to stare into infinitely because your eyes are tiny reflections of what they see and your body is the earth and i am the bubbles in your blood that keep you (alive) and i am the nothing in your starry fingertips, or the nothing you look through to stare at the sky and i(nothing)am are everything. and you(nothing)are nothing without me.

The Stars in Your Fingertips
i exist (am the spider in the sky) listless drips onthrough leaves that tickletouch my (bodiless; body and i caress each tree like a distant lover and each leaf (are the earthen fingertips) is the strangling fruit that lies in the hands of the sinner. and i am the sinner. and i(sinner)am the quiet roar that touches your chest when the earth wakes each morning. and i(sinner)have come to take you away. because when they burn you to bits- ((the sinner : the hyena) that needs for the fleshscraps.) and it hurts when you breathe because you bite me like an apple and your lungs are teeth. and it tickles in the trees and i (am the spider in the sky) have got you to eat you like a bug, and you sit in my web, and admire the view.

The Spider in the Sky
She caresses my chest while I walk and we're tumbling on a horizontal plane and I need her hands to hold me lest I tumble drip into nothingness. My body and her body fold together and my hands and her hands intertwine and she looks me in the eye without blinking and disappears; the seductive songs of the wind.

Seduction
i was drawn up on a piece of paper and tossed in the breeze surrounding lives resound voiceless breaths of the windpipe of a lover i have never met. why else would people stare straight through me, gloomy glances from my paper pupils into angels eye sockets, and they think that i'm human and they think that i'm like them and they think beautiful thoughts on rainy days while i'm stuck. eyes manifest imagination into each person's planet but not me, what i see reflects back and all i can do is be what i believe i see. in san i ty is ta king its toll on me and i don't know how much longer it's gonna be before i gotta gasp for breath. people worry when i rant, but they don't get it people fall in love with people how could anyone love me if i don't see a person when i look in the mirror. shadow-whispers sing to me and cloak me in black cloth and when they took the cloth off. i hate linear equations and computations and numbers because people love numbers. linear thought blitzes right through me because I am a contradiction. chaotic enough to be a hurricane stuck in the body of a person.

What are you laughing at? I once asked the spider. He told me, not much... ... Just the look on victim's faces when they stick in my trap ... and admire the view.

spider-laugh
When sands grind me bare and my world's gears stop turning, I look to the wind and wait for the sky. for the sun to rage off of my range of vision until stars come out, instead of looking at feet I fix to the sky. my star stares me straight directly in my third eye 'sit still my son please I've sat here for years let me tell you a story of Earth at its start. the planet's alive, a lot like you can't you see, from fire and storms mass extinction, death out of, the earth came to be. Earth was weak until she spun her core so tightly and quickly the wind came alive. With that planet earth found a   cure for her fire. She found beauty in balance, constructed karma, founded shifting sands of time, dynamically brought concepts of good and evil to war with each other. Positioned herself in her suitable orbit. Just follow the earth, sit down, tame the fire. Spin your existence like her, and maybe you'll see there's no need for breath when wind fills your lungs. Find your own balance within, fight your own battle learn desire serves to feed flames, continue pain life makes suffering. Don't lose this battle or your forces might make you stay the same person. If after you find yourself trapped up on the moon, don't fear traveler. Fleeing far from home you have started your journey! One day you may find Your own heaven place, a perfect spot just to watch the cosmos below. And a star like me, one day you're destined to be. transcend all your pain until we same speak.' That's why I look to the stars, through unsurety I will keep swimming. Knowing one day full well, I belong in the sky.
