Random musings on how light might travel between people, or how two people might energise light, musings really…
*
We’ve been flying from star to star
Shunting between walls, light driven
Luminous, fragile, disintegrating
*
You have outshone the room
We are contained by matter
Material, we are poor
With too much money
travel from limit to limit
shuttlecock between places
*
bulbs leak from ceilings
drained, the carpet bubbles beneath us
ignites slick as a match’s rasp
struck hard as a breath, a lung’s gasp
we burnt this, it smoulders.
*
All smoked out, the fumes get to you first
We bake in an oven hot as Madrid.
