I begin to feel those tiny bits of color floating up into me - deep in me. That streak of green from the june-bug light, the purple from the berries trickling along my thighs, Mama’s lemonade yellow runs sweet in me. Then i feel like I’m laughing between my legs, and the laughing get all mixed up with the colors, and I’m afraid I’ll come, and I’m afraid I won’t. But I know I will. And I do. And it be rainbow all inside. And it lasts and lasts and lasts. And I want to thank him, but I don’t know how, so I pat him like a baby.

I want a bunny so bad. omg.
I’m getting a bunny this summer and I’m going to name it kitten.
Why do I want him still? Why when there’s nothing there.
