cell phone lot
here we wait for arrivals, goodbyes
for airplanes to land, sleep in our eyes
a parking lot or a rocket ship?
i’d vote for the space craft, the way it made time slip
were those engines in my ears or was it the ocean?
you’d think i was crazy, for all it set in motion
the way i felt, what a surprise
at least that’s what i thought, as we watched the sunrise

You took the first slice of me and you ate it raw
Ripped it in with your teeth and your lips like a cannibal
You fucking animal
I can still taste you and it kills me
That there's still some sick part of it that thrills me
That my own body keeps betraying me
There is such power there, it may destroy me
But it compels me
Of course I deny it
Can hardly believe it
Dismiss or demean it
'Cause I know I can't speak it
But when I began to tell
It became thе hardest thing I ever said out loud
Thе words got locked in my throat
Man, I choked

I used to be a human being
“You held a certain fascination when you were beautiful, delicate, and untouched. But now you’re like one of the Arabians my father used to own: Rode hard and put away wet. I don’t want you now and I don’t see why anyone else would.”
Chuck Bass, Gossip Girl
i like my body when it is with your
body. It is so quite new a thing.
Muscles better and nerves more.
“your hair still smells like lice but it smells like you which I think is nice. And that’s really fucked up.”
or if your wish be to close me,
i and
my life will shut very beautifully, suddenly,
as when the heart of this flower imagines
the snow carefully everywhere descending;
her: you want coffee?
me: yeah sure!
her: what kind?
me: whatever you think!
her: we can just surprise you?
me: yes! That’s the kinda surprises I like!
“I think I like it for the exclusivity. Maybe that’s a metaphor.”
(Me on why I like Casey’s Mountain Dew)
I'm feeling sacred, my soul is stripped
Radio's painful, the words are clipped
The grief, it gets me, and the weird goodbyes
My car is creepin', I think it's dying
I'm pullin' over until it heals
I'm on a shoulder of lemon fields
“You have a WWJD bracelet. What does that mean? This is not what Jesus would do!
