the dirt is full
of death but i would like
to convince it
to stop swallowing
i do not want to be
part of the cycle
a gear in the machine,
a piece in the puzzle,
a sinking wave in the sea
one night i devoured a lit match
and a pile of chopped wood;
the next morning
i felt flame fly in my belly
when i exhaled, it reached
out of my mouth
like scorching fingers; it was then
that i decided i will
break the machine,
set fire to the puzzle,
and drain the entire
ocean to breathe as much everything
as i desire
