to turn on. a light bulb.
the stars.
my eyes to the sky.
thinking up. feeling hot.
aroused. electricity.
a standard chemical reaction
which cannot be changed
to be on. funciona.
it works. a connection.
a spark that makes you glance twice
then turns into a flame.
lucid dreaming,
elusive pyromaniac.
bends you over to light you up
because you can't seem to stare at anything else.
so good, the ultimate punishment
when the lights suddenly go off.
black stars.
the crescent of a heel
kicking the door shut behind it.
apagar.
when you squeeze your eyes closed
and your retinas are still burning
because you stared too long
after a two-second spark.
turn off. crawl around
while you search for the switch
in other voices.
in nervous twitches.
anything that might make
your eyes find the sky
without asking how or why.
feeling up. thinking hot.
dry-humping the moon.
for it is what it is
and cannot be changed
