Fall in
Will Helms, 16, Hardwick
Past the burning day,
at bedtime when I shrug off sleep,
when I’ve got school the next morning, and I shouldn’t be here,
I sit down and press play, and the noise starts, and the colors fly up around me, and
cities erect and destroy themselves as the songs start and end.
I fall in.
I fall in deep.
