i want to take you to a revolution. i want to take you to the barricades, and push a flame against the brown jacket; as wasps on bicycles whir past our ears, and we laugh in the sun. we laugh in the sun and it smiles back.
i want to take you on horseback through the prairie, cowboys of the untamed west, and halt as the dust tornadoes around us; as wasps on horseback threaten to trample us to death, and we laugh in their faces. we laugh in their faces and they retreat.
i want to take you to a coffee shop. a coffee shop, if you get what i mean, and tell stories of how this is how the world should be; as wasps in business suits spit on the ground near us, and we laugh at how it glistens. we laugh at how it glistens and it sinks into immutable nothingness.
i want to take you to where the universe starts. i want to point at the atoms that created the big bang, and see in reality how everything is made of everything; as wasps are born and collide into evolution, and we laugh at creation. we laugh at creation and it burns us into history.
From a poetry portfolio I wrote in second year of university, titled 'Lonely Placements in a Loveless Universe'.
