prehistoric youth

hunched over a dinosaur

the fossils of dreams 

from void and stardust

drifted into this body

a dream dressed with flesh

i race with no storm 

my skin is my umbrella 

a forecast of will

dimly lit windows
russet gems of the city

electric night sky

You Are My Fucking Light Source

i was a dead planet 
without a solar system

 
aimlessly shooting through galaxies 
with nowhere to go

 
then 
i wandered into your orbit 
and now i am flush with life 

water 
birds 
n' trees 
n' shit 

where was there was no breath
now there are winds

where there was once only night 
now there are days 
afters days

-for Jessi Curtis

skyscrapers of shit
failed cities effluvium
these piss soaked downtowns
