oh hi there
you people are slightly insane
but i bet you the world
i am more insane than you

maybe i'm that one thing
that has two poles in one soul
maybe i'm just really weird
maybe i just have manic episodes
in my words
maybe i'm just nothing at all

oh hi there
now bye now

i can't draw
i don't know how to
only sometimes
i get a flash
of fake inspiration
from my own
swelled head

at least i can draw a square
but wait,
the lines aren't straight

then i realize
no one can draw a square
not without a ruler
at least

i love fire and ice
and i just want to burn the world before
knowing that there are people there
but I’ll just build everything better again
after setting it on fire
and freezing it in between the cracks

we - plural
you - singular and plural
i - singular
they - singular and plural

the blank pages
call to me
waiting for the deluge
of lines of night
scrawled in cramped script
across their pristine beauty

but they can't hold
the carnage of crimson
in my brain
the fury and tears
that make up my heart
so i just write one
word

one
word

one world

one possibility

one hope

'if.'
