this is what i chose
and make of that what you will
it seemed so simple
having faith in doubt
all metaphysical thought
stems from fear of death
rushing toward me
it’s so loud my eardrums burst
i wake in a sweat
it was past midnight
the sky filled with UFOs
i’d lost my camera
i wont sleep tonight
all i can think of is you
outside the street screams
unopened letters
vitamin d deficient
the room lit by screens
i’m on your shoulder
interrupting every thought
i know what you’ve done
you see yourself there
you don’t know how you got there
and yet there you are
my gun misfires
scorch-marks lash across my hands
i hear rabbits laugh
it was past midnight
the sky filled with UFOs
i’d lost my camera
a huge chimera
part wolf, part wasp, part human
i’ve named him Eric
circular logic
you can’t concede to yourself
this isn’t over
a huge chimera
part wolf, part wasp, part human
i’ve named him Eric
