I am deep sleep in a bed of flowers I’m the feeling of screaming for several hours I’m forgetting who you are and forgetting your name I am self deprivation and momentary gain I am sweet black coffee and fresh dollar bills I’m a missile crisis and oil tanker spills I am cutting sharp corners and making amends I’m Jesus’ daughter and Lucifer’s friend. I am Freud’s wet dream and a hospital ward I’m the nurses who go there and the sickness you hoard I am propaganda, prose, menthol, and medication I am roadkill and warm kisses and capitalist nations I am burning Buddhist monks and bleeding anarchists I am iron maidens, nooses, and human games of chess I’m the mafias dress maker and a gun pressed to your temple I am the stranger next to you, and the ocean, and the gospel I am quiet thawing winters and I am mothers sentimental I’m the universe I’m a secret I’m everyone I am mental.
