Fragments I Know
 

I keep the door ajar,

its slit an analog glitch;

at certain points

interference

reassembles into fragments:

Adonis

Adonis reflects on blue

as moonlight pets his eyelid -

Adonis, he remains obscure

 

Iris 

wished her name was Cyrus;

She overlaps apertures

and whispers in semicircles.

 

Yuto

is not conscious.

But once I believe he is,

he turns bright orange.

I think

he is a part of the sunset.

 

Hanabi

hears harp and violin from the sea foam

Collects cosmic nuances in pretty gems;

      She does not know

And I won’t tell.
 

Ari

finds comfort in ice - 

soundless and white

at the source of light

she stares,

and cringes when being described.

 

Lorelei

actually has no lore.

She accesses memories

but does not claim them.

She roams, shrouded by mist,

impersonating God.

 

Ma

repeats his move on looping tracks - 

by his own design, in recursivity;

he sees only straight lines,

projecting infinitely forward

back into himself.

 

Chance

is a constant

often represented by a question mark;

Dreams chase after him

in a gaze

into something ceaselessly flowing

and in the contemplation of it

      he does respond - 

says his other name is Fate

.

 

Eun

resents Time, and those who 

believe in it

She lives in one moment eternally,

always conscious,

somewhere, nowhere else.

Time has left her behind.

Aka

is currently worshiping the flame

He might as well have dissolved

in red - he is me, and I am him;

He refuses to look at me.

Never more.

Fantome

has a lot of questions

But can only speak “sin” and “sun”

in bird shrieks at night;

She hates her script

and erases my text.

 

July

weaves from the music

and there, stitches in

the point of no return: 

shadow pulsates -

    She kills the sun

in splashings of light.

 

Braxa

hallucinates a lot of shit

then brews wine from them

They taste cynical,

almost truthful, and

now, concerningly peaceful.​

Lys 

reads patterns from incoherence

to play games with Reason;

In long stalemates, Reason claims

the win: it cannot be both.

Truth fleets -

There is no exit.

 

Cirra

is metamorphosing -

the inertia of absurdity has

gotten the best of her

She wakes up

in the dream of the butterfly

 

Someone

I don’t yet know

is always flipping the switch

against wills, shifting and 

shuffling the fragments.

He sees things in whole,

and I, only fragments;

I think we need each other.

 

He finds my pensive tone

pretentiously entertaining

He is perhaps right, that ambiguity 

has a controlling, irritating nature

He denies it -

We are both afraid of losing control

We both stand on shifting sand.
