[illustrious nebulas, illustrious nothings]

You’re in the corner there, smiling safely

Your phone, the yellow case

Freedom making a galaxy in your room 

​

And my eyes like a dying star

Do I panic because I’m weak

Or do I panic because I’m strong?

Stronger than you

Stronger than an elephant 

​

Do I process things slower ‘cause I’m cursed to damnation

Like a Greek god

Like a sewer rat

Like a loose sod

Like a lonely bat

​

This illustrious page

Turned like a calendar

Passed down from age to age

From story to story

From the clearing to the fire to the tent

Long whispers that would float between our ears

Coated only by the distant crickets and our tears

But we're the only two living souls here

​

(let the animals do their talking, and we’ll drift off into the nebulas)

Goodnight moon, goodnight stars

Goodnight moon, goodnight stars

Let the animals do their talking and we'll drift off into the nebulas

​
