Some build futures with blood,
we summon them with tears.

A multi-media speculative narrative aiming to manifest genealogy for bodies without a future.

Droplets waving hello to tomorrows. Tears in the goodbyes and tears for lovers.Lacrimal glands as canteens emptied on desert lands. Cracked, porous soils. Dry and ditched sterile. Fluids that evaporate above and beyond, the sky, the heavens. Gentle fluffy dreams lacking shape yet, they form storms. Violent typhoons; havoc on the city followed by gentle rains showering the flowers in April. They build futures with blood, we summon them with tears. We don’t breed. Genealogy interrupted. We don’t procreate, we don’t need to, because we can always cry. All the tears that they neglected from themselves. Shameless. We cry all the tears for the ordeals, the little apocalypses they casted and perpetuated to us without care nor understanding. We do not look away, we do not blink, not until the tears flood our eyeballs and cry. On the same vein, euphoric glitter tears that adorn the dancefloors and shape the Plastisphere; crystalline happiness, viscous, yucky and everlasting. As a personal policy, I never buy waterproof mascara, I allow and celebrate the trailing of my epidermis. Cry for tomorrows that heal the tears of the past. Cry for tomorrows that respect our now. I came to this plane crying and crying I will leave it.
Indeed, I always cry at funerals and births.
