when times turn to lines, and we deform through indigenous degeneration- we, as the ones that had time stand perfectly still at midnight, between the past and the upcoming, gave in to the sloth, the gluttony, the pride, the wrath, the lust, the greed, the envy, and chose to thrive eternally, on the absurd. on the absurd, with the cheeks and foreheads, on the absurd with the black dresses, shirts and smiles, on the absurd, with all its wobbling, wishes and hungover mourning in the morning. we gave ourselves up to be groped by the force of time, and time ended up making love to us, ******* majestically. the table fills with empty cups, and we dance until the cups topple, lay a new, crackling plastic carpet underneath our restless hearts and beating feet.
