Oblivion

GRATEFUL 
my momma bought me a book, 
supposed to write in the things i love most
I’m grateful for air in my chest
im thankful for a place to rest
im growing and open but i know
ill make it out and ill be on my own 
you are far but in my heart you are close
when your sad i feel it the most

I hope to see you 
showing up drunk to a show, I know
its wrong but I cant wait to be 
so afraid. I never know what to say.
I want to say it all, I want to say everything.
my mind is racing, and my heart wont stop
at least not now.
I feel all the pain the gravity's sinking in.
a feeling of floating in nothing.
I want to take a bite 
I want to eat the world
its so big but so small, it wont stop going.
a object with no perspective may not exist at all

eat the world

Torn moments before the monstrous birth, 
I had to not-see in order to be freed 
Insight through blindness 
A fondness for the deep—
The Stage, The Sea, and Me 

One morning in Greensboro I vowed to not-see myself anymore
Found a hiding place in the layers of clothes I wore
Body horrors and PB & J’s from Aggie Source
I grew bored staring at Ethiopian Orthodox sculptures 
and techno-organic posters 
Cyborg #10 is the culture
Eye of Gloucester 
Growing redder
Fetters of linen 
In goes the first incision 
skin 

A car encased in ice, 
I left my keys in the dorm and stormed outside
RAs had the tools, but I hadn’t stopped and tried to borrow 
Eyes blood red, Grandmother’s sorrel 
All I felt was the sorrow 
From cutting into my tired body 
Moor Mother crossfaded into Tchaikovsky’s Op. 64 
My little heart couldn’t bear that french horn 
I started to cry, ripping at the ice with bare hands 
I couldn’t see shit but the(e)n(d)!
