Satunnainen teksti

Overlapping

I lie, I bind, I silence
myself to the ground
I touch, I attract
behaviors from the past
- I see the past in the mirror

They are both on my face
at the same time
the realities are overlapping

Childhood

I dreamed of becoming mad
I feel the Earth's spin
under my feet
after all the burning wasn't from the sauna
tomorrow's sweat was rotating in my mind
obsessively

My gaze was skewed

Tone

I write for me
I write for us
I write for everyone who hears

I'm writing about us
the weather
after the storm

You surrounded me like settled wind
you touch me like the heat of the sun
the universe is one

Hurry

I race, I wear myself out
when the silence sets I change into being transparent
I open the textbook's science page
           "here"
like you told me

I look in the mirror and see many
pieces that fling from themselves
shades line my face shut
           self-destruction
is always quiet

Puppet master

You told you felt everything
I felt like I was dead in my role

What are we even playing?

spiritual (23)

i couldn't venture myself to sleep
from the thoughts about a little fox
           the little fox
who with the blue eyes made it
carried me so far

that little fox
never heard kudos
before this day

thank you
           with every paw of mine
that i exist
