blurred vision

i forget about my thirst

as your exhaust sucks the life

out of the air

out of me

so normal

like you

were never gone

want to look at you

suck in every detail i've missed

while you stumbled through ireland

drove through africa

i guess the details of

me

seem insignificant now

details you won't care to know

slam the insides of my head

so that i see a brightly colored spot

in the bottom corner

of my left eye
