OverTheRainbow

I want you to kiss me until my lips bruise and pucker and purple and all I can taste is the inside of your mouth.

we sat and imagined fireflies

flitting between the tops of the RVs

as the sun disappeared into muggy,

illicit sludge. we realized we both liked

 the sticky-sweet taste of summer

you remind me of 𝕔𝕒𝕟𝕕𝕪 decay. in a pop-up cartoon store, flies buzzing around your flushed eyeballs.

𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒙𝑨𝑮𝑮𝒆𝒓𝑨𝒕𝒆𝒅 and with hearts still in your eyes. tell me whether it hurt when they loved you.

I need an after,

not a happily ever after,

that's a ending,

I need something after the ending,

when my movie ends and the credits are playing I need the last clip,

the bloopers.

I pass by a man begging for savior,

and a woman dragging her child who's distracted by an elderly ladies puppy.

I watch as a business man late for a meeting I assume,

trips on the man asking for change.
