the first post

1. what worries are left?

when sleep seeps in and decides
to swallow you whole.

2. who could have imagined a world like this?

what intricate details are there, hidden in each thing.
where the sky spins according to secret plans. someday
when i can see more clearly, i will understand
why this strange interaction occurs between the stars.
