Nights when it’s warm  
and no one is watching,  
I walk to the edge  
of the road and stare  
at all the fireflies.  
I squint and pretend  
they’re hallucinations,  
bright made-up waves  
of the brain.  
I call them,  
*field bling*.  
I call them,  
*fancy creepies*.  
It’s been a long time  
since I’ve wanted to die,  
it makes me feel  
like taking off  
my skin suit  
and seeing how  
my light flies all  
on its own, neon  
and bouncy like a  
wannabe star.
