in spires of glass

now i am a million years old and will never sleep again
in a small boy's voice
steam hisses through the furnace and rosy hued night
fills more space than the volume of these ventricles

mornings are filled with hard wood floors
how much wood could a would chuck
hurled planes of stillness under ass

she said, "the first line of my novel is the best.
i am in love with it." it's ok. it reads,
"my ass hurts. i mean it. it aches."

copied. copycat. plagiarism. a plague of words
will rot through this flesh and ooze out
times new roman script
monitored by beeping blinking green on black

colors change with each hour and i look forward to mauve.
