A rippling steel arm thustclutching_calliope said:I saw descent today
and went blind. Don’t even ask
me to raise my arms and scream
as a rabbit. It’s down,
down, down
and the wind snatches tears
from slit-lidded eyes
and turtle soup for dinner.
There were diamonds
so close to reaching.
me skyward, like a rock star's finger
plunged into air saturated
with screams and lust. A hundred and sixty feet
into heaven I wondered is this
the metaphor I've been waiting
my whole life for? But three seconds
later I knew, no,
this is.
