I flatten my father’s tin foil hat to hear farmland again. I don’t have what I have. I am the astronaut god commands me to pinch. my babies are tossed in the general direction of trampolines. my eyes are male and impossibly warring. I am trying to talk to you as a child who was read to. I have seen only the future my parents memorized. I can see her nodding off at the controls of my sleep chamber.
