engulfing, I
, look
down.
Screams fracture the silence. I see
Acrylic blue ground, horizon unbound, cyan waves rise they
wail a siren's lullaby to drown me: in royal blue. I vocalize liquid to
—conquer blue by my
shattered faucet-tongue
pouring
red  
down.    

Have I won?

the moment you leave the heaviness
engulfs me
edges of vision blurry and
my body frozen.

Seeing a smatter of silly showmen
Showing their shiny skills and smiles
Smirking and twinkling in every moment
Superb in every mile.

Silly showmen sow what they reap
They shed their skin to a brighter one beneath
Shall we all become silly showmen
To smile and shine in silly showmanship?

I want to string the strands of your hair between my fingertips,
Universe beaded in threads of boundless night sky.
I am a black hole, a singularity of compressed hopes,
Millions of light years away from the way your tired
smile powers my heart. The way your ghost
eyes haunt the pumping of matter
lost in infinities surrounded by nothingness for
eternity.

Greek heroes fall
Down and down again.
Years of glory,
Birthdays, family
Gone in a
single push
in a single
sun-burnt wing.

Will you fall tomorrow
As well?
Fear of death

Life is a pencil.
I scribble and scribble tornadoes to
use the lead as quick as possible to
forget the time lost
until the blunt tip gives in to
metal holding the
erasure
of all
worth.
Will my legacy be meaningless lines,
poetic words or
simply nothing?

Every surfer must fall everyday before they can tame the waves.
