When we both are in our splintered state of mind
I will glue fragments of our minds into a
Ceramic vessel
Perfected by the patchwork,
We'll be a chaotic disarray of
Terra cotta and melancholic thoughts.
Something so whimsical,
Only we could fathom it's substance.

Fatal flick of my index finger
It's too dark to investigate
Ambition creeping out of my nose
Lungs filling with paranoia
I'm left in the dark
Where am I this time
Whose head is on my shoulders
That's not my heart beating in my chest
And I
Am
Not
          Me.

i  should  be  seeing

fuschia,violet,vermillion,olive,chestnut,

but  all  my  eyes  comprehend  is  the  

chromaticity  of  this  disorder

turquoise,crimson,cerulean,mint,wine,

all  i  see  is  but  an  esoteric  dream.

he's alive and i don't know what to do he's trying to beat life out of me using percussion to give me a concussion tuning me like a timpani and striking me like a snare dying in a rhythm improvised in a split second the mallets drew blood from somewhere i cant understand and i cant see anymore where am i am i dead yet

where will you find yourself
when the moon asks you to take a rest
when bats flicker around you hair and tug at your braids
you'll remain outcasted from the faucets and radios outlining the nameless avenues you can't bring yourself to call home.
as the rotation restarts
where are you going to be

what was left of me
is now a melancholic ornament
suspended by my erroneousness
swaying in gusts of my breaths
what you ended has
begun again
tristfully i know
why.
