Explosion

Explosion

by Kit Terrell

I must start with I AM
Without I am there is no home, no conduit
I must start somewhere
Can’t I start with myself, or is it selfish?
I beg of you, I pray of thee do tell me

I must start with the same thing
This is my space song
I feel like a cluster of stars or nerves
Behold my destructive glory
Behold me I am magnificently beautifully ugly
