as heat envelops my small body,
and the earth disappears from view,
i have to wonder what i did
to deserve this debut.
The Neverland Fan
I never want to grow up!
What’s the point anyway?When you can fly up in the sky,
and play around all day.
I know I can’t compete with the stars.
What there is to see in the stars is endless.
I see the constellations and am reminded of a structure I can’t maintain.
Control is now
Time escapes
Strength is now,
Emotion flees.
Anger simmers
Love lukewarm
Focus off
body cool.
The thing you want
is trying to kill you.
Embrace
Starlight trickles down the latticework
As haughty hearse tires grind past astral asphalt
As though recklessly inclined
To ferry death’s last claimed
Across timeworn cosmic avenues
Across God made time
I wish that
I
could learn to fly
and
swim through the sky at
night with the comets and the spaceships
and stars.
