There are mirrors all over this place and each wall is hologram-ed with my reflection. I am pink and blue with the pale ideas of hues and pleasantries. I am not abstract but my lungs don’t quake with the facts of air and the thrusts of life- I am reality. Independently so, I am reality perched on the back of a featherless bird and the flight takes wind of my throat and sets me on fire. I’ve not had a powerful love that moons me hollow or jades me pale like the blistered stars that hangs on too long to something too dark, I’m not depressed but indefinitely so, I do not feel too happy or too sad or too anything. I am a stranger. My emotions are not too stark or too raw, they linger. A little longer than yesterday’s Jack and I burn just a little darker than this morning’s sun. I am awake only for this moment and the moment after that, my eyes will close and I will drift sallow into a putrid shade of hollandaise yellow.
