I want to ski down the slopes of
your skin, temper your rigidity...
You didn't ask me
"how are you?"...
Rough and crisp you were
Sniffling I reached out for you...
Across miles of glass,
bits and bytes of...
Black sunrise over
the foggy dawn...
Nowhere else have I
gone, nothing have I...
Right now I need to burrow my head under my arms,
close my eyes and hide until this litany of fear...
Rays of golden light refracting and
bending; radiating brightly...
Touch me-
In secret places no one has reached...
Crush me in the box of reality,
smash my innards to a paste...
Enclose me in your most vivid terror-
Swallow swiftly the texture surrounding...
Break off the icicles clinging
like stalagtites to the ceiling...
