Am I worth it?
–
I'm not so sure yet.
I just want them to be happy...
I don't have to be involved.
After all, that might be contrary.

breezey

i am nothing
lighter than air
slave to the breeze
null that i offer
null that i can
i am nothing
nothing can suffer
nothing i am

hardcandy

resting in my cheek
clinking against my teeth
round
hard, but
smooth
the sugar crust
sweet
taking away a little of the bitterness of life

Huh

little ball of confusion
like static it tingles
prickly to the touch
sleep in the head

running

an influx
drum pounding
the blood is in you
it tingles
soaring
i'm flying
my legs are free

Moving body in tangent with breath, running gives me wings.

i was told to be irrelevant
so don't look at me
you
the object of my fascination
or the image will be broken

aflutter

don't waste your tongue
vocalize my demons
–
i am a butterfly
silent as ashes
