fluorescence on a repost

fluorescence causes shadows on the page to

dance to the carnage of

writing, and flicker to the

dissection of paper, must

i lean so close to hear it breathing?

fluorescence causes pupils to

constrict and listen,

the windows to identity and

little known secrets becoming smaller

and smaller until i can't feel me

anymore.

droplets form on eyelashes where hidden

thoughts come to

escape their destiny of being trapped behind

dazed eyelids.

fluorescence causes memories of

reality to disintergrate for however long you

want it to stay.

reflections remain locked in treasure chests 

buried at the bottom of your ocean divined 

heart, in return for three hours of

neglect compassion and ache

because my hands don't shake, internally on a

stake, doctor 

what can you prescribe for a chest that breaks, a

heart that quakes?

lips that... break

promises like falsetto meets window

finger print contours work as the map on my skin, so

forgive me if i seem so distant

it's just tricky for lamb to let,

lion in.

fluorescence is the dream catcher that folds 

anxieties into paper swans, so to

pick and choose dreams, to

restore them to life, or stub them out with your thumb


to feel luminance pump through your ether,

fluorescence is the dream caught.
