I don’t want to know about your ex
Don’t want to know about your daddy
Or your ******** coworkers or customers
Or your catty friends
Stop
Tonight begins the future
Some believe a wall against your back
Creates desperation
But it can also spark urgency
Clear the phlegm of memory
It can protect
Your vulnerabilities
Focus your vision
When getting jumped
First thing you scan for is a car or wall
The fists and kicks might ****** down
From everywhere like stony blizzards
But the pain is peripheral
Not ethereal
You’ll have a chance to dodge and block
Stop
Tonight begins the future
A future empty of splinters/thorns/shards
Of muscle aches, fatigue, or tremors
Of gooey *** tar heroine, clunky *****
Dismembered torsos, sliced ears, dangling eyes
Red **** and blacker kisses
In turn I won’t burden you
With my ********
Won’t convert you into an airport carousel
I won’t unload
My unkempt baggage
Upon your frail façade
Turning turning turning
In circles
As weary passengers shuffle
To and fro
Frantically
Beneath buzzing phosphorescent
Stop
Tonight begins the future
Open and free
Like air over mountains
Like clocks un-tocked
Like silence hovering around the corner
A seed buried in ****** soil
A dream light has yet to touch
Tonight begins our future
