What I Want

Ubiquity in two minds that fit like nails in wood

Irrevocably close 

Constancy in the surrounding population

Like train schedules 

This train station is covered in IOU'S 

Signed with borrowed pencils

And even if you took them down their radiation shadow would remain

This environment is toxic 

Coughing up raspberries, like jam is being rationed

My raw throat wants companionship 

And so do my arms 

The floor is lined with spoons 

And the mirrors are replaced with them too 

That way it won't matter what we look like

Because we won't be able to tell

I know I look like a human being and so does 

Everyone 

Else

Everyone

Else

Serenity in acquaintanceship

And self worth to match the filters on all our posts 

I think we all need a heavy dose of rationality 

The way we tattoo status on our foreheads 

Is enough to make the neighboring states wonder how we are surviving 

Truly I don't think we are 

Perception

 

Greeted by serenity, we exchange feet

Sublimation walks into my person

And I let him occupy

The mountains personify me

"Living" they analyze 

And hanging upside down I smile back at them 

From ten feet up

"Different" they whisper 

"This one sees with its limbs" they conject  

Pouring from my ears 

Blades of grass lye beneath me

Encircling it 

Cushioned crater 

Carpenter's cutout

And the hands that made it, omniscient 

And at the other end sits a crouched figure 

Or standing

Depending on the figure 

Floating down or falling 

Indistinguishable now

Figure proclaims its presence

Then wets my completion 

We spar our way to supper

And at night he tells me of the other side

And how I'd like to go there

It seems

Certain 

Perfect.

Every drop that fills your frame 

Is exquisite, and ostracizes my limbs into shame 

The curls in your hair, on the end of your toes

And the freckles slipping down the tip of your nose 

Create a race so rapid and quick 

Often my fingertips need awakening from a needle prick

I'd like to ask you about foreign countries and constellations 

Or perhaps we may critique facial expressions then plan a vacation

To places in mentality of lasting significance 

Like self-actualization or cherished times of remembrance  

I bet you'd smile when your sad just to spite the tears 

I'm sure you scoff and laugh at your childhood fears

And replace them with things that may not exist

But their relevancy to you is enough for my help to enlist

In the salvation of your fingers and tender mind

Darling, there aren't many left to of your kind 

Above any aspiration or beautifully lit dawn 

I wish to see you without makeup on

Then I'd hope and pray 

That I would have the nerve to say

Darling you look the best today
