on the green hill of bones when you were wearing your green crown I watched you trim your hedges lord you are so strong and red I thought you were the new king of kites so I let myself run like rabbits and war red into shallow rivers blue into the mean blue sun
my mouth is a cave and when I learned to stand still you spoke a language of bats we are bright we are bright you are the only flashlight I've ever met and I want to go swimming and I run, I am red and blue
skin me and run me up paint me with your boar bristle eyes paint me pink at dawn I can hold you in my hand I can hold myself too but get out your brushes get out your crown I'll go anywhere but no where, say we'll go to Tunis, to Bangladesh, everywhere. Be bright be my brightness and see through my tattooed eyes in the dark under leaves I am running red for you
-Tay
