Riddles by lurm, each paired with an associated art piece

can we please go home?

the train comes
so run

you aspire to greatness—i won’t tell you no
tilt your chin just a little more. that helps you stay above it all

at least half is in how it’s taken.

pretend that we’re not here

breathe in

everything you dreamed of

breathe out

anything you can’t quite visualize

branches at the ends of branches at the ends of branches

the arm
i couldn’t get it out of my head.

at the moment i divorced the object
from the concept of itself

i know you
what’s your name?

i remember a day when i woke up dead.
