what a gluttonous city; imagine
every murder feeds a mouth with teeth; when the concrete is hungry, it shivers a sentry into wake; the skyline is its softest the night of a fresh kill; the city is hungry; the ground rumbles; a vessel is taken; the city hunts; preys; kills; feeds; glows in satiety

black love stories all around me, two black alt kids on the bus, both with bob length locs. one kid tall, lanky, deep brown skin gets up to depart at their stop, and the other kid, wicked cat eye, face gleaming with constellations of metal, and a spiked choker passes them their skateboard.

when someone dies their energy is still present it is just the physical that is no longer. they are just fully in their energy body now and that calls for and requires a new language and mode of communication. they are still here, and we mourn the familiar, but they are still. ❤️
