Would you rather

Fiction & Poetry

for Natalia and Annika

Would you rather be a kid or a grown-up?

Would you rather be a kid or a dragon?

Would you rather be a grown-up or your whole
body turn into glitter throwed into the air?

Would you rather play video games all day with
having no money, or have all the money
and work all day, work twenty-four
hours and twenty million
minutes and all the
every single
seconds?

Would you rather be burnt up by a dragon
or be a grown-up?

Would you rather be burnt up
have your hair fried off
teeth melted
your eyeballs coals, neon coals
like a grill thing
bones black
muscles is really meat
did you know that
and the dragon chewed you
whole
teeth
and you burned in its
lava stomach
it has three stomachs
or be a grown-up?

Would you rather be
all your body
glitter
or made of meat?

Would you rather dragons
be real or play video games?

Would you rather play video
games or dragons be your
pet and you could
ride it?

And your body be
made of glitter
it don’t eat that.
