not a care in the world

we found a dumpster full of still hot pizza


my strap snapped on my backback


my bike chain is so rusted


it broke off


if i never turn my phone back on


its not my fault


my dealer is depressed so i cant reach them anyway


i woke up on the floor next to you i am not sure what happened 


 its ok

theres more to you molly grue

in austria it is thought
women should take up as little space as possible

aunt kathy is hooked up to like
a million machines
cause her lungs collapsed
and i mean really we all know
she is going to die
and everyone is throwing around
i'll pray for ...
while everyone is smoking
and saying "if only she took better care of herself"
and i can't stand it

but
to be fair

i am so tuned out these days
its like
when i said it was ok
like right now
which
is not ok though

i might even be bored
isn't that the worst thing

kathy would take pictures of the rows of crab apple trees
that lined the path between the houses
on the family property
and send them to me come spring
cause when i was 7 i wrote her a letter
telling her the tree
in our front yard bloomed
and it reminded me of how
her hair smells

it's still framed in her hallway
by the blue bathroom
with the porcelain goose
with the polka dot bow

she always took up lots of space
it seems the worst thing
to keep her tongue
pressed down
by a thick tube
and her hands
laced in with needles

i am sitting cross-legged on the floor of a train museum

"i have agreed once and for all to submit to my inferiority. and yet i am not stupid. i realize that it may be necessary to think further than i do, and perhaps otherwise. i am waiting only for my brain to change, for its upper drawers to open. in an hour, and perhaps tomorrow, my thinking will have changed, but this present thought exists, i won't let my thoughts be lost."

maybe

do you ever just feel so much
you can't say anything at all

you can't get yourself to roll over
and ask for them to touch you
because you are

and because last time

you want to know that
in some way
you are doing something right
when everything is going wrong
and you know its all going to end anyway
because you can't stop it
and because you can't
change
how you feel so much
that you can't talk


were you too scared to tell him
to put the condom on
did you keep it

do you ever draw hearts on your wrists
to remind your self to stop eating
but forget about it till you watch it wash off
into the dishes

why a heart?

was it easier for you to forgive your father
than yourself

adjustment disorder

sometimes you stand in the middle of the grocery store and just hold the kale tightly because it the only thing you are sure is ok

sparkle, sparkle

i touched myself
in the living room
with the shades open
my back arched
my pretty pink
toe nails point
and i puke
magic stars
for the world
i let the elastic
snap back.

i can come
just by closing my eyes.
i've always had to be
so quiet
maybe i'm a mermaid.

i like to crawl across the bed
makes me feel my
cow and cat
cow and cat.


sparkle, sparkle

it's easier to get cold when you are naked

I woke up at 1:50
everything was so quiet
I held my breath
pulled the curtain
exhaled into the pillow
