A mantra song I do not remember the meaning it holds- repeated over and over- in a lotus; no, thighs too big they become forest, as tonight's dream swings with time, as your tomorrow becomes my relief, as the red star winks at the hidden moon; shy ****** curtain, laundry's cheap perfume, underlined flaws and jellyfishes on a tiny plate, melting candle, lavender, sweet green tea and salted butter. Nostrils reek of ***** bathroom break, do not be late, please wake up early, earlier than ever. When the east comes, let's fall asleep with the lights on, we are not even the moon; souls do not need sun, or vegetables, or green things growing happily like someone's five year old- not my parents', never- they lost the four, the most important before a five- an incomplete puzzle, cut neck of a giraffe, eyes black like coffee black holes, who does not want that? Chemical terms keep saying hello to the tiles, count me in, let's have a drink, glasses of sparkling mineral water. I prefer it clear. River; never does flow- becomes a yellow lake. Pretty pretty sands, no one is unique, a diamond and a thousand more- a pearl, a wounded shell, mermaid's sadness and a knife- bubbles covered ocean; sunsets and fireworks, a birthday, reality and a nymph with a wing; the bells are calling us as if we are not yet that cow, grasses greener than green, numbers of dead things are increasing, as heartbeats keep piling up like the books you bought but never read- they cry at night, especially when it is moonless and cloudless, like tonight from the baseball field; where the moths talk about jealousy and sleepy handsome bats at nine p.m.- marching chests, a lonely festival, a ghost house; where lives begin- End.

Starry- too soon
