London’s Window

Geneva Smith

“I found out today that there was no such thing as color” she said
A breezy type of calm-

A not so funny joke god has played on us all.

��

What happens when you find out your as unwell as the next?

Live-
Life.

��
So we do.
So we shall.

I will write the way I’d like.
I won’t sell a thing anyway.

��
“What happens when you find out you like pain?” she whispered in my ear while twisted around me like a 300 year old tree.

��
I spoke, only to hear myself.
No one could be bothered.

��

Then she came.
She brought with her the information, a transformation of sorts.

Explaining in her baby voice that screaming is not always bad and we don’t always hate who we think we do.

��

Taught crudely about how there is not love.
Just hunger.

Her perfume mixed well with sweat.
Her eye liner ran south.
Her smile was forged.

��
She said.....“Just stop writing.....it’s foolish”
