Really Big

#Prompt 213

I want something for all my troubles

I want to crawl out of this ark and behold a rainbow that fills the whole sky

À rainbow so real we can slide

and skate right over the storm

Big as my troubles have been? Give me fireworks!

in March

when I’m on the other side of it

Write something across the sky that lights the day and glows at night

Announce a carnival for when I finally leave the arena

With the dreams i fought for firmly in my grasp

Give me a standing ovation loud enough to reach every room breathing with my doubts

À cosmic overcorrection

Whatever it’ll be,

Make it really fucking big

Big enough for the swallows to see

From wherever they’ve flown

And when Cupid is ready

Shoot the entire quiver

I want everyone who wants me

For a moment

or a lifetime.
