Art by Roger Guetta
sometimes my voice leans into me and says
i need to tell you something
it no longer wishes to belong to me
or to anyone else
but to flee
can you understand?
to fly away
rising against the wind
impaling the sky
circling the stars
slicing through orthodox chambers
ascending
transcending
beyond hope
beyond impossibility
sometimes i you don’t dare desire
what did you say?
desire
you don’t dare
i desire desire
oh, how you do dare!
let it thread its way through my veins
your blood
i desire desire
let it rise
let it flare
let it flame
immeasurable
bold
igniting everything in my wake
