Mirror mirror on the wall
Could you please return our ball
Our football went through a crack
You have two now
Give one back
- Benjamin Zephaniah
Have you ever lost someone? It's like you're dying with them. They can move on, but you're stuck.
- Eyk in 1899, S01E02
everyone's dying
everyone's dying to die
everyone's in my way
on my way to die
it's too hot and dusty to die
I am eating the ashes of the dead
eating the exhaust of cars
an image sacrifice
looking for a boat to heaven
namaste,
your boat has bad karma
out of the way
I am burning inside of shame
I am at the seat of ash
on a boat to nowhere
burning inside
I am at the end of time
shiva orange
rat queen
goddess of money
sleeping in time to die at the hands of doms
sunrise to sunrise from the beginning of time
alone at the end of time
rowing nowhere
lost in serpentine alleys
amongst the amputees and water buffalos
amongst dust breathing souls
looking into eyes
looking back
for anything
not burning

What's your excuse, though? How you treat your friends, your family. Everybody there just to be escaped from, just to be left behind. Like they let you down, instead of the other way around.

You know, a long time ago, I lost my favorite sister, Cecile. In an airplane crash. I learned then what grief was. True grief. How it moves through the body. How it inhabits it. How it becomes part of your skin. Your cells. And it makes a home there. A permanent home.
