She stares out into the darkness. Unease washes over her.
Buzzes permeate the night. Mann. Machine. Mann. Machine. What are they, even? Odd … so unabashedly odd. What isn’t even a thing? “Thang. Damn,” buzzes of distant voices Martius out of sync with the zzzzzz-ing of machine. (փzփzփzփzփz, not zee-zee-zee-zee-zee). The buzz of crickets though
now that
that is the buzz of the mind.
Mind you: that’s only what Meraki feels.

She’s sitting between two worlds. Her ass placed stubbornly on the balcony railing. One fall and she’ll feel alive. One..
The inside radiates death, the other side assimilates into death.
Laplace holds her heart, transforming out the ugliness into more complexities. That demon. He’s to blame.
Too many transformations. Too much information to take in.

The thrumming consumes her mind. Waves. It’s waᵥ ͮ ᵥ ͮ ᵥ ͮ ᵥ ͮ ᵥing. Her. Her body. The tears in her eyes. The thrum. Moving cosinusoidally with everything. Everything is a wavelength toolong to have any resonant frequency in the soul.
She’s not able to do. She’s not able to let go and submerge herself to the greater tides of the world. She’s ʬavering.
And why should she submit, I ask you this.
What ungodly hour is it, you ask back. Whatever it is, she finds solace in it. It’s the only time where her mind’s at ease. Her soul placid. No, it ain’t the cold atmosphere, or the atmospheric sadness in the industrial sky, where the only stars are lampposts and the rivers are 16-laned highways, now empty—none of those comfort her in the night. Nor the isolation provided by night. ҂҂, for that sensation too is a lie. Notice. Notice, damn it. If one were to look hard enough one would realise that one was not one, that there was infact many who opposed the falling of the sun, who stood high as Luna herself. But there was something special about night-people, she realised: they were removed in manner and disposition from day-walkers. The ones with dominion of the night ||her typa people|| they all acted like they were dead. Not one acknowledged each other; nor was there any shame. They would sit in gardens, or balconies, or open-curtained rooms, where all could see you and you could see all. And yet no one called out to her ever, nor she anyone. They saw, they acknowledged; they did not care. Yet she felt communion in it. Found a People. It was the only time she felt like she was alive … living with the dead, so to say. No one had to hide. No one was there to judge.
The only people hiding behind the veil of curtains were the remnants of light, desecrating the glory of the night with their filthy, shameful, carnal passion.
She sighs
Night
Gone

A hum.. |t’s coming from her. Her throat, at least. She doesn’t want to make these sounds. All these sounds (||Tearing Tears||) All these cries (||Tearing Tears||) She doesn’t like it. Never had. Never wi║

My boyfriend likes to undress me in a nonsexual way, or at least that’s how it feels.
