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.
