Sunset

Driving west to the
open-mouthed sun, waiting to
swallow us whole. The most
beautiful shades of
orange, pink, & blue
swirling around a ball of
literal fire. Clouds
scattering and the sun
running away to make
room for the
moon & stars. Now, 
darkness rules the
Earth, & its 
sleeping subjects hardly
notice how the
world keeps spinning
without them.

  • Eyes

    the leaves are turning the color of your eyes again 

    as they fall to the ground i take care not to step on them 

    break their fragile spines, crack their delicate skin
