queen of the cathode ray
"I'll wait until I can see it the way you intended.."
It was lit in such a way, shot in the perfect aspect, the clarity behind it only helps saturate what's front and center. You'd think it's ripped from a tape I found in a storage unit. Watching it begs for the bubble warp of thick graying glass ...
Do you see me in the same cathode haze? Do I emerge in your mind with the same etherium?
Feathers glistening in an astigmatic bend against the halogen lights. lensflare halo, screen tearing. Flickering to the rhythm.
I'm talking now, exchanging with what feels like a bootleg dvd. Charming in it's own right. Is this an act of preservation or a nicotine patch?
I hope she's kept in proper ephemera...
Would you regret never seeing her, if you knew it could never be in the proper format?
