earth is a massive thing
earth is fucking enormous
enormous things scare me to little pieces of shit
feeling small and inconsequential doesn't do anything
if i could feel love for one person, everything would change
if one person had enough capacity to love me violently
i think the earth would spin faster
and the fucking enormous earth would become confused
and do impossible, unnatural things
like allow long moments of silence in certain places
and little children would go days without crying
and the panda population would go back to normal
i don't know if i believe in love
there are venomous animals and fungi everywhere
and every mouth i put my mouth on i get little germs i never had
is there something worth dying faster and more recklessly for
the same thing that happens when you divide an atom happens to people
i want a back that i can call mine
and can kiss whenever the mood hits me
a back with shoulder blades, a spinal column, and shoulders on either side
