⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Of a thousand dreams before, I thought, they wereonly remnants of desires—latent in tree stumps, street corners,pigeon roos over my roof, white sheen of canvas
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Of a thousand dreams before, I thought, they wereonly remnants of desires—latent in tree stumps, street corners,pigeon roos over my roof, white sheen of canvas
I looked around and saw all theWindows and trees and hairdosBrick, recemented, old, differentHeights and browns and entrances,Rusty bikes; the Mediterranean groceryThe organic butcher, Turkish
⠀⠀⠀⠀In the dark crème living room and the brown crooked streets outside⠀⠀at night—⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀the numbers keep shooting up⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀on the yellow television screen.
