everything is real I know what I’m doing
I light blue candles for the ancestors
I have a blue light bulb in a broken desk lamp
it lays above the shrine to you
sometimes I light it when i’m getting down
sometimes I shake
like the fuilmanet in a bulb shakes to make light
kundalini the snake
body shaking they say is the nerves realigning
circling back spiral arms outward
I read that nerves are ancient and plastic which doesn’t mean like how it sounds
we’re all plastic now
sex is a part of all of it
the house is you the room is you
the spirits watch me fuck in pools
pricked myself on a half dead cactus
she’s languished here for years
half alive which were we then
the summer when we first met
the summer when you left
I named her that first day but could never remember what to call her
she is pangea
