And there it goes, like a splinter in the marble sky. Shooting specks of another planet to my toes.
All so my feet would burn.
Staggering, through this landmine of explosives. Eyes rolling to the back of my head, to a viewable screen of memories.
Me & you darling. Feet placed in line with each others,
You stand on the black square
I'll stand on the white.
[But wait.
Don't move me yet.
I don't want to be queen.]
