Tear

tear

fucking
like rabbits
we were
when she
whispered
electromagnetism
and the weak force
and the strong force
and gravity
will kill us
in the end
but right now
I’m happy
to just be fucking
she smiled
and my tear
landed on her lip
I whispered back
me too
I’m happy to ‘be alive
fucking you
she sighed
in that great way
that makes
fucking magical
in a world
heavy with the pull
of gravity

I place 26 letters from the English alphabet melded occasionally with Arabic numbers in sequences I enjoy while utilizing blank spaces and 14 punctuation marks between said letters or numbers to create expression. For example: Ingrid enjoys cotton candy, mathematics, feather-light kisses, removing wood splinters from soft feet, and whiskey with an e. One day she will die and be gone forever. The dream she loves is often smooth as black glass. Too many people are scared to live. Not Ingrid. Some days she wields a heavy maul, shattering the black glass touching her dream. Most of the atoms comprising Ingrid exploded from unstable high mass stars, billions of years ago. That makes her smile. Ingrid is the strongest, most beautiful, most alluring person in the universe - at least that's what David, thinks.
