[1.23.05]

the dull, sharp light
electric, bright

pounding in my head
- what, instead?

what if it was?
i'm only fooling myself.

nothing lasts, much less
blossoms into beauty.

the thick-aired night,
electric, bright

even i'm not worth it
when in it comes down
      to canaan, to the promised

the barrenness of solitude
- was misconstrued?

did i lie to myself?
play with my thoughts
until they're something else

please, turn out the light
when i'm done, you're gone

Today is one of those days when you want to either die in your sleep or have your life ruined so that nothing will ever come of it - you can laugh away, into obscurity.

I'm tired.
