The dodecahedral light fixture wants to hover into my ear canal, Humming distraction and anxiety, Scratching at my white matter. It nests on my shoulder, festering as a cystic rat Nibbling at my lobe, Tickling my spinal cord base. Its patched gold foil, Peeling from the age in which it has existed, Dusts the line of my hair In a metallic luster. But this vintage incandescence only ignites my passion even stronger. The bulb illuminates the dark corners of this coffee shop, Blanketing any traces of apprehension, Any remnants of doubt in saturated confidence.
My father sips his coffee and gazes at the suspended geometric glass object Chained to the ceiling, Residing over my command of the building, And is indicatively pleased with my excellence. The whipped cream glistens on his captivated mustache.
