Don't call this an art project. this is science, this is progress. and don't pretend these are heartfelt words, we are children dressed as surgeons but disturbed by the sight of our scars. and now we carry scalpels to trace the scarring resting somewhere on the line between my house, your heart and into your home. where you lay sleeping like a ceiling fan in winter, gently turning as the wind reaches its fingers through the window just to hold you, like I held you. pressed like a rose between my fingers or like stones I keep in pockets meant to weigh me underwater. these scars will fade away but never disappear, my dear. we'll raise our fists like lightning to rods to god and if he strikes us down, then he strikes us down. but first, let him hear us speak: we are like the legacy of thunderstorms we watched and swore in doorways, "we will never be the same again."
