AND NAIL | Dalton Day

How’d it get so quiet here? It was only a hundred years ago that I first finished counting my teeth. I guess we’ve reached a new kind of house. We wheel away what we can’t carry. I am dizzy. I am a mess of glowing things. I don’t like to eat apples as much as I should. Everything is safe today. We will never again have to use the word hallelujah properly. Stay healthy. Oh, this big and beautiful death. It’s something else. Meet me in the mouth of the cave. We can watch the night skin itself trying to figure out who let the devil into its home.

PARLIAMENT | Dalton Day

No! Really! Owls have begun to roost inside my belly! Members of my family! Believe! That this turn of events! Is an omen! Of death! Or something similarly sinister! But this is not so! They are so soft! They are so warm! Mother! They watch over me! As I sleep! They ward off the ghosts at my door! I cannot be haunted! Anymore! Mother! Before the owls! My body was filled with such empty barns! Before the owls! Mice moved elegantly between my bones! Not anymore! The owls are in my heart! The owls have nested in my heart! If they are death! Then death is not something to fear! Death is something! That takes care of you! Until it can’t anymore! Death! Is only death! Leaving!

dalton day: senescence

for myself

Since when has everyone been getting older at the same time? You’re just trying to get to the library. You’re just trying to get to where you are. You’re just trying to get it. It didn’t occur to you  to think that just this morning  your mother was half your age.  Can you cry digitally yet?  The stars aren’t doing anything differently, and yet you still want  them to accept your apology. It didn’t occur to you that engines break down well before the highway does. You only want the laughing to be real.  You are the only one that isn’t  a child again. You only want everything to live forever.
