I'm doing this no justice. Saving my tongue for dryer days, keeping the ones I actually love from losing their own pinkish tails in my waning nonsense. Sane and civil... because I am my fathers shifting chameleon; his white blazer and my mothers blood orange; her Lorazepam. My name alone is treaty. One lonely gabble lodges itself inside of my esophagus. Get lost founding father. Burn harder rebellion. I need me on my surface, not buried under the expected ammunition of ink. End your sparkle, sparkler. Here, your exploding gold only crushes the windpipe of flowers. I have nightmares that stretch my fears towards our waking sun. Yawning out the last sighs of moon. Once again, I hesitate and stumble on tongue. I've seen my words startle rust like the flat cat call 'boos’ of halloween towards November. Since I've been buried, halloween hasn't missed a year. And the gibberish of its mask will always sting as resonant.
