UFO while waiting to hear the cars crash

dispassiontea

this feeling is 

an effortless language that flows

like heated soup from teeth to tongue with your arms hooked

around lamp posts, stops signs, traffic lights, whatever—the dogs bark

a symphony and every one of these nights is

watching limbs like a cacophony of microwavable bowls

blowing up gently, one by one,

in the heat of the new day,

taking away those sounds that were so simple.

Amazing submission by dispassiontea! Love the sounds and images in this one (and great title), I rate it 10 A+ pop quizzes outta 10.

First word to come to mind: anchovy Last thing said to my family: I thanked my dad for helping me solve a smoke detector malfunction mystery. Also texted my mom about zucchini.
