73

oh, pretty body,
grab me and lift me up!
off the ground, higher than these clouds that loom over the city today,
higher than any of that pretty blue.

then ask me if i've felt any better than this height,
and i'll say "yes, yes, yes i have! today's morning passed too quickly
but i was awake and i've touched skin,
and skin has burned holes on my body
so that i no longer crave anything but this morning all over again."
