how old am i? today, i’m today. i’m as old as whatever light touches me. some nights i’m new as the fire at my feet some nights i’m a star, glamorous, ancient & already extinguished. we citizens of an unpopular heaven & low-attended crucifixions. listen i’ve accepted what i was given be it my name or be it my ender’s verdict. when i was born, i was born a bull’s-eye. i spent my life arguing how i mattered until it didn’t matter. who knew my haven would be my coffin? dead is the safest i’ve ever been. i’ve never been so alive.
