wake in an orchard

sunlight breaks through the branches

grass between my toes

it was past midnight
the sky filled with UFOs
i’d lost my camera

we danced and we danced

we gave a blood sacrifice

but the rain still came

mankind is long gone
tree roots tear through the pavement
reclaiming the street

there is no bus home
everyone singing a song
that i didn’t know

so that’s the story

have i told you this before?

i lose track sometimes

circular logic

you can’t concede to yourself

this isn’t over

completely naked

but for top hat and goggles

i dress to impress

in a dark forest

a tree trunk spans a ravine

we’re chased to it’s peak

completely naked

but for top hat and goggles

i dress to impress

unopened letters
vitamin d deficient
the room lit by screens

mankind is long gone
tree roots tear through the pavement
reclaiming the street

a robot creature

that for some reason hates me

“don’t break in my car”

i suppose it was alright while it lasted
