Pick up the phone.
We aren't dead,
We're just past living.

Expired youth,
Pick your battle.

Like crows after midnight,
It's time for the birds whose songs are not praised.

Maria,
Black wings cloaking our insecurities
Coming through at night.


Flames a brew

Candles out

Let smoke fill my mind,

For then I won't hear screams.
