From the backseat I draw in the cherry spark.
The smoldering ember is like a blood clot
trickling through the joint similar to a blood channel.
Crackling gently the paper incinerates backwards.
Leaning back, lazy lungs breathe and revel in the scent of recreation.
Musical frequencies pulse through the skeletal struts of Dj’s car.
Rhythm and rhymes nestle close to the curve of my spine;
the bass sinking in deep into the folds of my clothes.
Blue brushed lighting flows through the windows in slants.
For an instant I find myself in rumination quickly leading to ruination.
Cows in the distance low to us, intrigued, pulling me back.
Holding fast I overcome the air restriction.
Gathering the smoke into my mouth I shape my lips and blow.
Hazy rings begin to slowly emerge from my mouth.
Taking aim I direct the loops over the back of Bryce’s head.
It gives the distinct impression of a halo
as the rings inhale and expand before disappearing
like an ethereal specter into his dark hair.
