Life:Screen
if life's a movie it's sometimes
hacky, hard to sit through and
you wonder how the world must
be a real flop, a body horror or
hopefully just an indie nature film we meet
each other at the interstices between
frames on the film strip in seeing me
we both see you and americans are a people
enamored by light, by tragic flaw
maybe there's a reason we all make
so many mistakes it's because the fountain
of the universe is story i find myself
in ubers contemplating where
i want to be, who i want to be
and i find that it's just in more
cars, ever watching cities and fields
pass me like a long movie and I'd
like to watch it with you, and I'd
like it to be one of those calm movies
full of rolling hills and pagan musicians.
