The Tower from Fool Season by Jacob Nico

You had a dream of a pond on fire
When you woke up you were sick in the sink
I am so lonely I could die
All my friends are so far away

Dealer won’t you please give me something
Flame crawl out of my window
Wax moon, you dissolve on me
Mistakes still stain my skin

I am so repulsed by
The thought that anyone could want me
Trapped in a tower that disgusts me
I look in the mirror and throw up in the sink

Cosmic body horror
Abstracting the self
Please don’t ever touch me
Please don’t do anything at all

A sinkhole, on the inside of your elbow
I disappear, briefly in your arms
Hidden driver, tape warps and melts
We both lie there, drunk in the sun
