Explain to me, danger. Ice too thin on the coldest day of the year. Snakes posed in the chasms, formed by dark red earth. Quick sand, el chupacabra, a malignant tumor. Pills and pastries, needles left in the park, Poor knife skills, and poison darts. Explain to me who he is. Death playing chess on a windy beach. Body-less hands reaching beneath my sheets, Like corn snakes. An old man in a fishing hat on the train platform. The train conductor drunk in the smoke, snow, and storm You’re a hungry boy with a weak lactose gene. Parallel tracks like tres leches and vanilla ice cream. A little string attached to my belly button. A curious marionette, a dead puppet. Too cocky, checkmate, and the sound of waves. Everyone dies, but not everyone saves.
