Whenever your power goes out
And you're standing in the dark
Looking for light
Remember-
You are what you eat.
you've devoured so much sunshine
You could illuminate a black hole.
You are so
Unexplored
the parts of the attic
Covered in cobwebs
Which are
Thicker than your desire
To know
What is held in those unmarked boxes.
So with the sun you swallowed
You catch the cobwebs on fire
Along with all your desires
And tell the world
To fuck off.
You find paintings to hide in
Just after you cover your tracks.
No longer willing to be hunted
You tell the ground to stop betraying your feet
You shout to the clouds
You shout to the place
All your ideas wandered off to
And died.
You sing songs to resurrect
The same feelings
(You already forgot)
You made yourself forget.
You appear in the sky
With sparkles and jewels
Decapouged all against your
Sun dried skin
You
Are
Made
Up
Of
Water
But
The well
Which resides
Within you
Has been stretched thin.
You play checkers
With good intentions
And misunderstandings
You rally up hot air balloons
And tie your cursed hands to them
You pretend
The water is cold
But it's boiling hot
You breathe fire
You bathe in lava
You tackled a man
Dressed as a bear
For telling you
Only you could prevent Forrest fires.
