i pledge allegiance

By star

i hate watching

you. i hate the blood

that pumps underneath your right hand

and runs through you red and thick and salty--

i hate your stubborn lips, mouthing

every 

word.

i wish i didn't wonder

how it feels.

i wish i could

stop

watching you.

    Summer nights still taste like smoke

    and fireflies still dance.
