venus morning star lucifer f a l l i n g backwards and forwards in time in rotation in retrograde rotation
(“the fall of lucifer” painted darkly against the bright spot in the sky) ((i see myself in the shadows beneath his tumbling figure))
light-bringer dawn-bringer the rising sun in the east a supernova exploding in the background: there are subatomic particles bigger than what i can offer there are greenhouse gasses that give off more heat than my body will ever be able to produce for anyone
day light night light the setting sun in the west a constellational birth in the foreground: there are not enough moons in the solar system there is not enough space between planetary rings to explain gravitation and the human body
(aphrodite tell me: is this sin or is this love?) ((i will dip my toes in sea foam until i deteriorate i will put my ear against conch shells until i can hear your answer))
venus evening star lucifer pouring sulfuric acid into the car vents the air ducts the atmosphere it becomes the thick dark clouds that obscure my vision of myself from reality
