Horoscope.

Before we tie the rope
We check our horoscope together
You said it'd be fun and
We won’t tell anyone about it
Like the other day
When you locked yourself outside
Compelled to kneel and pray
For all the birds that died
And guide them to heaven
With the strength of your mind alone
Because their spirits get lost in the airwaves
And they'll haunt
Our cell phones
And plague us with visions of building nests
And eating worms
All on a mound of dirt that loops around a ball
Of gas that burns
Alone

Through the dark

There's no such constellation
To frame this conversation
Between our distant bodies
In laundry rooms at parties

I never thought you’d show!
(With glitter caked on your face)
I watched your antlers grow
We looped around in space
Alone

Thru the dark

Don't be cruel
Won't it be cool?
