intimacy drown 1.1.25

Earlier tonight
Smoking and cigarette 
Alone in my back yard 
I imagined that the whole world was dead

That I was the only man alive
No one else
Roaming the streets of Melbourne 
But me

And I like it
That feeling 
And I asked myself
What I would do
Instead

But nothing came to mind
I think I would still do
What I love to do
What I'm currently doing

I would wake up in the morning
Have a coffee
Excited for the day

I would carve into mountains
And go on hikes
And build random houses

Maybe statues
Maybe burn some bush
In controlled fires

But I would still write
My poetry
On all exposed walls
With carbon
And ink

And I would sit 
All alone
On the parliament steps
And play my piano
For only myself to hear
And no one else

Earlier tonight
Smoking and cigarette 
Alone in my back yard 
I imagined that the whole world was dead

So I played my piano
For only myself to hear
For I felt like I was all alone
There was only myself
To bear witness
And absolutely 
no one else

BS
