white blue red favorite shirt
dirt
cheap hurt
all the dead words
that we insert
into our brainwashed minds
existing insane
within
existing
at all
triple fall
words we speak through the violence
we repeat
thoughts we stop
that we defeat
thoughts we prevent
it’s a constant trick
uptick fake and quick
can’t talk
or exist
or flourish
the same styles we revile
and revamp
recertify and stamp
the same
harm we cause with
our own hand
beat bloody blue bruised dreams and
won’t repent
or repeat
or feel anything
anything we may block
for being
too off track
another trick
it’ll work it
works and
that hurts
stop me for sport blood
sport
can’t keep track of it
another trick I
sell out always
want more of it
to feel good
to feel wanted
to want anything I might want
I’m grateful for that
but you missed the point
of my whole words
and free poems
and star theories and
planet promises like black holes
I wanted something else
something not so
clear
maybe
not so obvious
but still special
to see
a star
or maybe develop a theory
that could repair
the trauma of our
world
thoughts of the galaxies
and entire moralities
to see it all somehow
I wanted more
I wanted more from you
I wanted to be me
I wanted to show you something
I wanted to see the universe
not just bought a dirt cheap shirt but I just repeat myself unsure:
I wanted a trip
outside of the universe
that we make.
