icarus vibe

there is no footing in the sky.
but no confinement.

i know that i am wrong...  
 
tell me  
what you think i want to hear.  
tell me in binary.  
tell me in seven tongues.  
 
i was just too close, that's all.  
too close  
to the sun.  
 
 
tell me anything at all...  
 
 
there used to be a hole in the sky.  
now they say it's a star.  
 
light my world, why don't you.  
 
your soylent green eyes.  
 
you infinity.  
you splitting atom.  
 
 
 
i can feel the malady churning  
in the pit of my belly.  
 
maybe an ulcerated stomach.  
 
 
 
maybe a sliver  
of a star.
