starlings swim in chaotic rhythms forming patterns we can’t predict, though we must protect
air shifts and passes as i glance over and noticed the shaft of light resting on the inner side of your left thigh where charlie horses once landed
in good fun
you were best friends
better than brothers beating one another senseless, or had they let the augers decide who gets to take the first step towards an empire
brutal or spiritual?
who are we
it crashed
the empire
sorry if i ruined the story
rise and fall
like your chest after rolling over from the one you thought you knew
so will you
crash that is
if you put yourself in a position where the potential to reach higher than before is sought, you’ll miss
and die
hopefully catching flight under the tail wind of swirling birds before you die
