Shroud

The sky was heavy with heat. It hung over the earth, an indigo shroud that caught and held dust and ash and little specks of broken thorn. Saturated in the waves of hot that fell from the parchment sun, it drooped low over the ground, motionless. Hot and heavy and motionless. Its frayed edges grazed the distant horizon, whose mountains encroached upon its chalky sage expanse.

b+w day

today feels like a black-and-white day like you stole the color from the world and dropped it down the trash chute of my apartmentor maybe you saw the colors and you were jealous and you painted over them all until nothing was left but their shadowstoday feels like you wanted it to feel this way like you wanted me to look out the window and see only the barren remnants of the life i once ownedor maybe im wrong and youre not here and maybe the color just seeped out on its own and the bleak contrast between the black and the white is simply a reminder that there is nothing left here to anchor it

scrub

the water is turning to wine in the rivers and the dust circling overhead is beginning to smell of smokeit teases my tastebudsi know not what i am if not dew this mud is dense my footsteps sink into itthe dark fluid runs over my pebbles they your plums and i the tree from which you pick themonce brilliant sandstone stained a red as red as our lipsit wont come out unless you scrub at iti can't scrub anymore the skin on my fingers frays and leaves marks where it should wipe them awaythe dust settles in the riverthe fish wont all survive it.
