See those wisps, floating away.
That delicate white ring ripped apart - oh look it's broken. Rise higher. Dragged up kicking and screaming. Has it stopped struggling? I think it has. A drowned corpse bloated with air, it rises to the surface of the sky.
Fingers oustretched, trying to touch it. It looks opaque, solid - grab it. It slips through the cracks. Don't go, I want to say. Catch it, swallow it. Chew it, savour it. Linger not in the stars or in the clouds outside, but in the cracks and corners within me.
Bye-bye, I never knew you.
