the line between madness and genius is a pattern noticed a hair's breadth too far from the crossing lines vibrating in our eyes like cats raised vertically can't see horizons i wasn't born to see this. the contempt i coddle for my indulgence is missing from your cat eyes but my what big teeth you have grandmother better to taste generations with your elf-nose and cat smirk that shoot starlight into mad minds. sometimes i think i met lancelot in the wrong order and that you're the proof that chaos makes art and random patterns are madness made genius by attention so forgive me for my suspicions. how does the nervous insomniac love without reservation or doubt chasing the sun through the tropic of aries swilling words around in your mouth and in your teeth to soften ones that i was born to believe.

all my friends' childhood dogs are dying
