On nights such as this, lovely painted nightlights My soft petaled sheets become Course on my brittle ankles The unorganized pile of miscellaneous god knows what (Does he?) Transforms, hallucinogens point and laugh Becoming bits of deities to serve as an alarm clock on a plate Ticking my black hairs to grey The cold air suffocates my toes and Fills my shell with images of Once laid here with the changing eyes that kept me quiet.
Sometimes, I wake up and search for your nonexistent space.
