entirely going on but no single
person can ever know it,
so we fall in love.”

“Recently I've been dreaming
of cursing old people
with little provocation,
because their culture
has a long history of enslaving,
raping, and segregating,
and they have special lights
which prevent us from dancing.”
― Matthew Rohrer, A Green Light
