thoughts on today: need

i passed a man on the corner, eyes closed, smoking a cigarette and there was such raw need on his face. i could see it. that ache, that quick pull, lighted ash burning down with each dragging breath and he was rapture, sucking it down, burning it out. impassioned on a side street.

walking by, i became him, feeding off his pleasure and thinking about what i would die for.
