I’m the pinball, falling absurdly back down when you miss the skill shot
The party ended four hours ago and you are just now arriving
Picking over the trash heap of your heart, you find nothing worth saving
The thing about beautiful sculptures made of shit is they’re made of shit
You try to have sex but your legs feel like they’ve already given up
I reach out across the space of the dream and try in vain to touch you
Love’s like horseradish: you have some & then fail to taste anything else
Remember that you are a molehill that can step on other molehills
Dermatologist recommended for when you’ve cried so hard you glow
When I waste water I think about the future, how dry it will be
Why get worked up about something when our collective end is so near
You climax and are immediately filled with a vast emptiness
True & brutal fact: yesterday’s future is none other than today
I’ve started to think in these now, which at least means I’ve started to think
Unicorns are in. Lisa Frank unicorns, by contrast, are way in
Please don’t look at me like I’m your father texting you with emojis
Mind like a diaper: changed frequently in light of new information
