Pink + White
Everyday
control. We being
pink +
white we just
nod slow, move
north
nod again, eyes
close. It’s
hurricane season
everyday. It
could all
cannonball
the same
way. It could all
shoot
up, kneel into
something like
a birth, no kiss no
glory. No
telling. No
immortality.
White Ferrari
On eyes, in
mind. Clouds
in the road. Had
a good time. Sweet
familiar,
so
close. Body I
left and
forgot. Text-to-
speed, bump.
Slow speech now, lesser
care: still
honest?
Honest, we got so
familiar for my
part I. Stay
climbing. For my part I
tried. Good times
in this
taller sky. One too
many days
naked. Dimensions of
tired walls. Fall.
Take what’s
smaller. Mind over
prison. (If you think
about it it’s
over) I’m sure
we’re so
okay here. We can
still
go dreaming. Maybe even
free,
eventually.
