announced ‘Wretched City’ / + a poem

it feels exciting to start giving a tiny glimpse of what this project is going to mean, although I’m not giving everything.

here is a poem. it is linked to this.

La un suc

his eyes twitched as he looked into hers 

he felt the urge to lean closer, engulfing the table 

with his elbows, obnoxiously coming closer to her 

plate and her breath 

she slowly pushed him back 

with her heel, under the table 

'not here', fire red bright lips shone 

in speech that condensed all the air around them 

he had supersonic ultrasound for her 

felt her breath like white noise booming in a concert speaker, and every word a blow, a slap, an embrace 

for the jelly fish monsters that swam in his head
