(No Title)






the girl
used to wonder how
the world would look as
seen through an amber nugget

the light dispersing
into glimmers of brandy droplets
and a rainfall of champagne
specks of gold
in the mines of her pupils

darkness kept
at arm's length
by these dancing flames
in her blood through her veins

adrenaline

a skip of the heart
take this second of life
with a grain of salted caramel

the girl
used to wonder how
time would taste when clinging
to the corner of her mouth

upturn

she releases into space
all the orange hues
she holds

fire in her feet
sunset upon her figure
