i keep thinking i might float away

i keep thinking i might float away
Noah Cicero

the other day i came out of the Plato class and was standing on the steps
leading out of the building. A bird made one of those weird bird noises

it seemed for like a piece of time during the bird noise

i might drift away into nirvana

and be blown out

or extinguished like a flame

and all my desires would leave

and with the desires my body would be gone

but it didn't happen

and it was still standing there

i've been sleeping a lot lately

it is my new hobby to escape reality

i always wake though

and my dick reminds me that i still want sex, even thought i don't want sex, my
dick still does

then my stomach growls and tells me i want food, even though i have no
interest in eating, i still want food

and tonight it was cold and my body told me i needed a heavy coat and shelter,
i have no interest in wearing a heavy coat or shelter.

So i sat and read Li Po

Li Po said to me

Man dies, his white bones are dumb without a word

then he said

The mountains crumbled.
