So you can commence us

I want to sit around on the streets of Tokyo
occupy the art
for immense emotions
and create new slang

I desire bearing your new life
poke about in our japanese garden
until you come home
and love me away

I need to fixate my life
with swedish glue
and electric summernights
in our own future

I want to sit around on the streets of Tokyo
wear t-shirts with shady text
see the cherry mountains unfold
as morning arrives

I can't unsubscribe to your piano melodies
and the manuals of
how to do away with dependencies
does not prevent me
from imagining life before it happens

Wearing out the universe

It is said that there comes a point of no return if nuclear reactions run amok. It is claimed that it is indisuptable that our solar system was formed through several explosions eons ago. I am Tjernobyl for you, and my path cannot be travelled backwards. I tried the steel brush to get you off my skin, but it only left me aching and soar. You won't fade – the only thing you succumb to is to enrich in my flesh (without me even noticing). I've lost my sight, because the sun has turned my eyes into a wall of dark bricks.

”Why are you wearing dark sunglasses?”
”To keep the darkness inside.”
”Why are your nails painted black?”
”To prevent the light from entering.”
”Why do you sit in the gloomy room all alone?”
”I am not alone. I am transcending.”

It is said that we can never fully understand the universe, that there are forces and matter that exist beyond the spectrum of intelligibility, beyond accountability.

Hey Jennifer, tell me

(Phone signal.)

”Hello?”

”Jennifer?”

”Yes? Who's asking?”

”Was it only lust?”

”Pardon?”

”I asked you if you liked fucking him? Or was it more than that? Was it this masochistic drive of yours that made you do it? I bet he told you that you're kisses were sweeter, that you're body felt and tasted different.”

”I don't know what you're talking about.”

”Sure you do. You know perfectly well who I am. He fucked you and you let him do that. Right there in the bed where he fucked me just hours ago. Did you think about that, Jennifer?”

”No... He told me that you had problems... I thought...”

”Of course we have problems. He's fucking around. And I feel comfortable in knowing that there are noble persons like you, Jennifer, who's always ready to help a guy in need. He must've been devastated. Poor thing. But we all know that fucking always takes the pain away. So he must be cured now.”

”I don't know what you want...”

”I don't want anything. But we're sisters right?”

”I guess...”

”Then let's not kid ourselves, shall we? Did you think about me when acting his painkiller? Did you notice my belongings, my mark in his life? Did you care about the heart you were part of in breaking?”

”I'm not sure what to say...”

”You don't have to say anything. Just listen. Just tell me you'll join me. Just say you'll never act like this again. Ever. Just promise me that.”

(Pause)

”See. Now we've reached an understanding, haven't we? And by the way: I wear your earring sometimes and pretend I'm in your clothes, shoes, body. It gives me a sense of belonging, that we're not that far away from each other after all.”

(Click. Phone dead.)
