— Savannah Brown, “The Universe May Stop Expanding in Five Billion Years” (from Sweetdark)

there’s the black / chasm of want expanding / in my chest the way a bead / of ink breaks, making me difficult / to touch without an exit plan. - sweetdark, savannah brown

It’s one of my favourite poems in the book, so I put it as my title thing. I also just really like the way it flows and the way it sounds? The whole poem is lovely which I why I included the whole thing for you :)) Thank you for asking!! (Also I was trying to remember which poem exactly this came from in the book, so I searched up the line, and my blog is the first two search results for it in google,,,, terrifying.)

Touch me baby, oh yeah!!
