‘My Milkshake:’
Don’t be so cute while I’m driving it’s unsafe
You said I looked like a pauper at the party
I parked the car I walked inside I took a shower I was surprised by the tenderness of my
own asshole
I’m tired of you making us late with last minute jewelry decisions
This week was so fun I hardly used the internet
All the people were peeing moments after 2012 began
I’m choosing to ignore you out of concern not meanness
Moss in the alleyway I find the cracks to get creative
All you need is a bag of white tees and a new deck you’re brand new for weeks
Give me a your hand and stop lionizing the neighbors
This is just the right amount of hard work and play
I built a cloud in the tropics I hope it’s there when I get back
Good people make really bad decisions
I want to sleep in until there’s only enough daylight to make me shimmer
Violent like the last day of Christmas break
When I was 16 I spat on my own mother and threw a rock through my bedroom window
I don’t think I’ll be a hundred percent in this life
Nowadays it’s hard to lose your music
I don’t think poetry is making me a better person
I remember my first visual metaphor
I stuck a feather in the sand and a seashell below it closer to the lapping bay
The seashell was God
The feather was me
The water was all the love in the whole wide world
