1.
Part of me swells and bursts and time crashes over us in waves making the moments glisten like the sun leaving imprints in our eyes but our retinas detach running from the stabbing of the sunset beaming through the ripples and only then do we remember what it’s like to truly see as we curse the darkness for taking the fire

I hear a ticking, some distant counting. I hear a ticking, something is leaving. These moments watching clocks, wishing away the days, and trading my life away for survival. These fevered desperate dreams, leveraged against the days of trading our lives away for survival. I dread the day when it get's easier to dull the ache till I can't feel the scraping of trading our lives away for survival. I hear a ticking, some hectic tugging. Can't stop for stopping, here now I'm pacing. My chest is heaving, my skin is crawling. Can't grasp for gasping, each breath for leaving. Our dreams bursting with golden light held us above the tumbling waves. Our dreams kept us awake in the sprawling, yawning grey. (but) We've seen our dreams turn into steam, in the belly of this awful machine. We've watched our dreams beat into dust in the lurching of this wretched machine. But where dreams cannot thrive, something else must take hold. We're not so delicate. Can you hear a ticking? Something is coming. We could be so much more than what we've been led to believe. We could be so much more than players in their moneyed schemes. Are you tired of waiting? Are you tired of giving in? Are you tired of living like a ghost, waiting for death? We could be so much more.
