Blueprint

This is the Blueprint
Kill the spider Monday 
Choose an identity Tuesday 
Collect the powder Wednesday
Power down Thursday
Come back Friday

She skips 
And then

Find your power the blue star said
We both laugh
How very real silly is

If I stop
Will I fall asleep
Or wake up

You already know silly

Asleep is awake 
And awake is asleep
See, easy as swapping yellow and cherries

So tomorrow we will have a yellow day
Of course
Yellow day always comes after I find you

Shoot the rabbit steal the watch

There are colours in the hole Alice
Bright ones
Like an explosion
She taps her foot nervously
And

I am scared of jumping
But It’s as easy as pie

Sometimes I don’t know which one of us is the parasite
Sometimes I wish the hole would be filled with concrete
Inside or on top 
It barely matters any more

The rainbow caved in
Our nation fell 
Imagination barely scares us any more
Nothing left we could adequately describe as an adventure

There is no exit here
No real blue

I breathe
We walk faster

So this is the Blueprint

Our past
Our present
Our future

See, you already know everything silly
She sings and skips happily along inside me.
