Hiii…
So small in the dark
Little bubble of a word
Touching every nerve at once
Get lost
I’m sleeping
Salt in my eyes
Sand in my mouth
Currents humming lullabies
You keep poking at my dreams
Who is that who is that
Who is that!
Circles in the murk
Echoes wearing my own face
Presence detected
Pressure shift on the skin
A shape shifts between thoughts
Edges where there should be none
Great
Another anomaly
Like I needed one more problem
On this eight-armed to‑do list
(oh come on…)
Mmm… core… warm…
Glow like a buried lantern
Something beating in the black
Calling all my shadows closer
(A low hum that shakes the water)
Teeth in the tone
Stones in the song
Every shell rattling in reply
HI. HI. HI. HI
(off-key and out of rhythm)
A limb that won’t take orders
Scribbling cracks in the quiet
Octopus girl
And the water won’t hold
All the voices tugging at your soul
One says hush
One says run
One says stay and watch it burn
How many hearts can a heart really turn?
Who is that
Get lost
Hiii…
Presence
Warm core
HI HI HI HI
