[hook]

i’m pushing
on a bubble-like
dimensional boundary
from outside
you see a creature
pressed against a balloon


i make bulbs of light ignite
producing a shine
from a frequency
slightly out of tune
with your eyes
if you were to readjust
i’d look like lucy in the sky
my aura poking through the world
where humans reside

what is this
your world is just one
mine is under it
shadow looks after
all the matter
that the sun forgets
contorting
a scorpion’s tail
becomes a whip
the venom in its moonbeams
consumes me
i’m numb as shit

i’m escorted
to a comfortable abyss
with this poison
moving through my bloodstream
this is what you get
a century-long depiction
of an hour of meteors
the most exquisite shower
in the sky
you’ve ever seen before
when you’re in the grips of this
peace cannot be ignored
serene allure
sharper than a tongue
made out of a sea of swordz
magnetized
you can’t escape
you’re captured
by the hands of fate
trapped inside a shadow
blind
held captive by a vanta lake

from inside the darkness
a tiny spark expands away
an explosion
a flammable ocean
of titanic waves
transformed
like bruce
being swept with gamma rays
truly blessed
he accrues a debt
that he can’t repay

a permanent high tide
of fire
collides
with whatever lies
on the outskirts
omniverse wide

the introduction of a glow
to an unlit hole

was enough to evoke
a zillion-sunlit soul

but the vessel
where its nestled
is an unfit home
a disheveled moon
tethered to an upkept globe

it doesn’t make sense
what’s real’s so fake
such pain
shouldn’t be allowed
to feel so great
but sometimes
reality seals your fate
and bends
around the laws of logic
to reveal its shape
