Andrea Gibson
“she's wondering how many women are walking around this world
feeling the tingling of their amputated wings
remembering what it was to fly to sing”
Andrea Gibson

Andrea Gibson
“..when a war ends, what does that look like exactly?
do the cells in the body stop detonating themselves?
does the orphanage stop screaming for its mother?
when the sand in the desert has been melted down to glass
and our reflection is not something we can stand to look at
does the white flag make for a perfect blindfold?
yesterday i was told a story
about this little girl in Iraq, six-years-old,
who cannot fall asleep
because when she does
she dreams of nothing
but the day she watched her dog
eat her neighbor's corpse.
if you told her war is over
do you think she can sleep?”
Andrea Gibson, The Madness Vase

“But whatever
However
Whenever this ends I want you to know
That right now
I love you forever”
Andrea Gibson, How It Ends

“My mouth is a fire escape.
The words coming out
don’t care that they are naked.
There is something burning in there.”
Andrea Gibson, The Madness Vase

Andrea Gibson
“Cause I don't wanna be a witness to this life,
I want to be charged and convicted,
ear lifted to her song like a bouquet of yes
because my heart is a parachute that has never opened in time
and I wanna fuck up that pattern,
leave a hole where the cold comes in and fill it every day with her sun,
'cause anyone who has ever sat in lotus for more than a few seconds
knows it takes a hell of a lot more muscle to stay than to go”
Andrea Gibson, Pole Dancing to Gospel Hymns
