there is a hollow cadence in the
beating of holiday lights against my window.
harmony exists between the silent, pained screams
of businessmen and artists and the
spinning wheels of autobuses and so
we drink and drink and drink and
then spill our tiny hearts into the
gas tanks of autobuses and
speed across gallilean borders.
we are constellated like
points on an angry cartesian plane
or like the veins on the back of my
hands, pulsing with my rising heart rate when
we fuck or when we smoke.
i expel little bits of myself into
each cough. i am the empire state,
and i am the windy city and i am frisco and i
am the tiny lines between points on a map like
constellations. i will watch the water
become a sea of melting casio keyboards
and god will be the plagiarist,
fingers on a typewriter made of flats and sharps.
