the ways to fall
December 22, 2020
1. down
like ashes, burning ashes
crashing to the ground, worlds blurring amidst a field of roses,
with baskets of lace and buttons and candies
and then and then -
2. in love
with the girl
who runs with the wind
in midnight jeans that squeeze her thighs,
now a woman
who speeds on a Harley
as if she could pass time even though her eyes
are broken records that scratch against
the dull vinyl of her laugh.
3. alone
with a half-empty
glass of rosé
and liquid ecstasy,
slumped against the cold marble of the bar -
falling asleep only in dreams.
