Drunk with stardust
When you were lasered into life in a beautifully precise manner
You clocked that which you'd never see
The minutiae of the world's beauty
You noticed how the guy across from you on the train put way too much Aquaphor on his lips
When you were at your most stable, you quickly exploded
When you're infected with its dust, you hear that which no one else hears
Peaking on stardust, we chase silence out of our world, till Gabriel blew his horn
You resign yourself to delinquency, quirkifying your life
Like a vegetarian with a carnivore spirit, you stabbed at the fauna of the world, hunted it, surveying life's riches
