Reply to Oliver Baez Bendorf’s ‘Dysphoria’

jinn

some things live in a bottle
slime, they do own colors
they do hold grounds for last wishes
genie, genie, who lives with you?

in a hole is a truth
this water—a fountain of youth
leave home, leave home
fill a mind and be a tide

bury your thoughts
tie them with leaking tongues
if water runs through
let the blood take same color

This water. This bowl. This tunnel
follows same
follows home
into the tracks of icicle wishes.
