The Untouchable

I grew up thinking the stars were polite— that if I reached far enough they would meet me halfway.

They don’t.

They keep their distances. Cold etiquette of light. Even when they fall, they burn before they land.

I name them anyway. Pin them to maps. Say mine the way a child says future— without proof.

Some nights they look close enough to bruise the sky. Other nights one watches, as if remembering me.

But the reach is the point. The ache in the shoulder. The open hand learning the shape of absence.

What stays untouchable teaches us scale: how small a body is, how large wanting grows.

So I let them keep their height. I let them be merciless. Not everything that shines is meant to be held.

Still— Lit by borrowed light, my hands empty, my eyes full.

The Untouchable

Glass forged; dipped to form a window to the unholy

Sullen to see and reap the meaning of terror

Demons from pits you wish to never know

The sight unfolded was more than the holy

Wings black and blistered from the wearer

From paths of rights and wrongs that led to woe

Bleak and broken; wings left to mend with nothing, but time

Hands as scarred; grasped the air reminded, not this lifetime

banri roughhousing as the older brother figure to taichi and azami is so funny sometimes because azami is the type of younger brother where u can drag off the top of the bunk bed while he's still sleeping and laugh as u watch him pick himself up from the floor, sleepy but clearly pissed off like a pet cat rudely woken up from his nap.

but taichi on the other hand, banri can't do that because what if he gets hurt? or worse still, what if his feelings get hurt?? oh god, banri's gonna get into so much trouble if he did something like that to taichi. sakyo's gonna get mad. izumi's gonna get mad. even juza's gonna get mad at him for doing that. shit man, omi's gonna come after him for blood

I hate reading this kind of contemporary/postmodern era modernist-style novel cause they're all like, "The hypocrisy of all human relationships huh? :/" And I'm like "Damn i guess ur right :/"
