i sense something
of another world here,
and we've labeled it
as if it hasn't changed,
as if it's an everyday
object, as if it's only
a toaster and there's
nothing odd about it

but it has morphed into
an unrecognizable being
with six heads and six
smiles that set the
galaxies alight

and i'm
making friends
with the fire

i wouldn't call it poetryWhere stories live. Discover now
