Leftovers in my head,
the insects are long dead,
i have heartbreaks but
they would never be enough
until they pretended i
am a mortal, a

human with two legs ---
all two will be donated
to WWF.
Hear it? Listen

to a trembling lips
daring not to voice
a promise. You
know the consequences
of a promise. It's almost terrifying

until
you keep daydreaming
about plane, car, train crashes,
you keep daydreaming

about lethal poisoning, falling from 100th, any accidents
possible,
you keep daydreaming, even in prayers,

his body covered in oil, in blood,
his body cold and dry,
his body and white and yellow flowers,

and you cry but you cry the softest.

*

I am going to forget
that we needed jasmines, at
least we needed it so much we
started to pray to them,

i am going to forget
oxygen deprivations,
i am going to start
doing morning marathons,
i am going to
lose my kidneys, as well as my legs,

but i have the heart.
I have the heart and you will be happy,
they will be happy,
and i'll
blame myself for that.
