My work was inspired by the poem, Re-do, by Modern Baseball.
Maybe I could just move away
Or go extinct like triceratops
But I love loving watching movies
Sitting back, and also breathing
My family and friends would be crushed
But is it enough? (Oh no, it's not enough)
Oh, the future freaks me out, but I guess I could just
Curl up in a ball and think
Try to, try to forget
That your bones will dismantle
And the dreams you had
They'll collide with time
Your unrequited love for life will surely-
Halt that, I'm thinking way too much at night
