...equilibrium...

if you kiss me tonight,
in the morning i will shave my head
and feel more for the cold floor
than the locks that fell to it.
it's only temporary, love.
when i fuck (with) you tonight
you'll remember the instructions
and assemble the getaway car.
make-shift, the gear shift.
don't look back.
i spoke to a friend yesterday
about the detachment to a lover.
we both know it's not real.
it's about the taking, pal.
how do you forgive the forewarning?
try and try, again.
practice makes perfect.
and those eyes are so perfect
when they're drunk with extinction.
it's shaking the momentum.
you see what you grieve
and hold on to the hope
despite what i told you in the darkness.
it's only projection, darling.
if you play with fire,
you're bound to get burned.
i prefer to play with water
and drown in your innocence, really.

i sense your cynicism here, but it seems like it's coming from a place of scorn. i'm picking up two things here. one is complacency and the other is hope. the scorn seems to have led to the complacency, which are both nearly burying the hope alive.

I love it. (and I don't love alot.) I wonder how you would read it aloud. I think I like the thought of it getting read fast and to the point, but that is just my opinion.
