Run Off

A charge

in between

our skin

like wire

runs deep,

perspire,

make seem

we're fire.

The group

like lice

that form

my eyes

absorb

the light.

Transform,

make right.

We burn

our houses down

then turn

our eyes to town-

Then run off

into the woods

to blend in.

I know we could.

The kind

of hate

I found

too late

has gone,

escaped.

Evap

orated.
