LJ Idol LPF Week 3 Tiebreaker

[encrefloue]

We unfurled fingers from our ruddy lips

and in exhaling were awestruck

that Air itself

would stoop to accept our hot tufts of spitty molecules

as its newborns, its grandmothers.

The Sun was too hungover to witness our masterful infancy,

and in that moment, we were the only audience to our being—

we gave each other knowing looks and played it off casually

by hurtling through the bedsheets of grass in fits of vocal everythings,

collecting each possible friendly drop of dew upon our gasping, sentient skin.
