Vicente Grasset
The first poet ever must’ve felt it too: you’re here in the album
playing on my phone
because it’s you who wrote this song. It plays exactly like your trip
to Japan and like
all the lifestyles you promised me you saw there with the eye
wishing to migrate.
Some paintings use lemon juice to reveal newer tones with a bit
of heat. I squeeze that
memory like an impatient listener: it runs through my burned
chest laying in my
bed as I think of the lemons in every cocktail I have had.
You’re the first ever
Mario Kart beating I’ve gotten and I still want to form the same
musical symbols
you create daily. Everyone thinks you’re an introverted Sun.
