how long was i silent for?
 
burnt toast.
 
a balloon man
with empty white eyes
 
watches over this page.
 
it's a system
i like to call
layer boiling.
 
 
a young boy who has died
rests with his head
taped back together again
 
and he's missing his shoe.
 
a golden hair girl
with the whole braids
and ribbon bit
buried his bones
wrapped in a blue blanket
beneath a long skinny tree
 
at his funeral
a fat boy
brought him
his pair of shoes.
 
at the gates of death
a women  
with hair of twirling flames
greeted him.
her face
was squished
from stones.
 
i'm a plagiarist
 
i stole all of that
from a book
 
now go and find it.
