101 years

in the thickened air
under these roadworn wheels
caged bulb and steel

after thought

boba straw heels

these heels. thick as boba straws. he picked her up on the subway simply by the coincidence that she saw him reading Hit Parade of Tears. he seemed happy (her arm around him) she twisted her ankle in a groove in the cobble. Izumi Suzuki. we would have been friends.

August 1



they heard their name
a whisper on gossiping breath
between classes
it couldn't be kindness
think about me talk about me focus on me
all you want while i go about my life and
elevate
