Lost Myself Upon a Dare

· REMINGTON GRAVES ·

August 3, 2016

The lullaby incongruent and dissonant, lacerated further cries.
We begin this way, always, you and I.

Waves crashing against monoliths betwixt the foggy haze outside a modern windowed home.

Crowded and alone.

Seagulls sing not of you.

Hunting always hunting that old prey; feet striding through the years.

Once adobe, now cold stone.Worry not with winds so piercing, designer clothes insisting amid a layered background glare of natives unaware.

I want to stand still like the hummingbird

but

instead I lost myself upon a

dare.
