(March 2022. Rincon Puerto Rico. Cowritten with Alton, Brady, Amber, and Zak on the roof of Enhasa at night with the sounds of the rainforest all around. Also we were all on ketamine.)
the darkness melts around me
and harmony heralds arrival
synchrony welcomes the precipice
the coquis a symphony of syncopation
to piece together tranquility
my limbs feel all melty
my head is chopped off
and the nerves are cauterized
the night envelopes us
a velvet chrysalis
crystallizing tantalizingly close
