white noise

I fell asleep in front of the TV

Stuck in a nightmare, pain janked me free

It reached in my chest ‘n tore at my heart

My life, my end? I couldn’t tell them apart

On screen the white noise blinked,

Pulsed’n watched. Who’d care if I went extinct?

“I do,” said the noise.

heights and depths of Naboo

It’s been maybe ages, long-lost days

A memory and breaking noises that pay

For those moments of happiness I had…

Where Alderaan once was

Someone found the right place

All you’ve to do is twist your face

Someone found the right spot

To break the backbone of hope

Tatooine

I lost something in the Outer Rim

itching me, like a phantom limb…

Outlines of something big and bright,

like the shiny armor of a useless knight.
