i want to sit amongst the stars silent, dissolving into space, a still nothingness, a pair of eyes and no more. i want LA to absorb me like a sponge, soaking my essence, throwing it into the sink with all the other lost young souls: we’re soapy watercolor film. i want to be an extra on a movie set, watching in wonder as personality after personality passes me by, perfect and poised. i want to dissipate into the foam of johnny depp’s coffee, or drift like the smoke from uma thurman’s cigarette against her lips. i want to be a fleeting ghost, a jane doe in an undated photo by the paparazzi, nameless and noir in the grainy polaroid. i want to be a shadow, the fragments cast off of a shooting star - i want to trail along until i fade.
