Short


Basted 

If my hands were udders 

And my fingers teats

Would you milk me every day ? 
Eastbound 

Instant microwave eggs 

Not what I wanted for my sweet sixteen

Category loaves 

Infinity scarf 

Doesn’t mean you’ll live forever 

Dollar store eyeshadow  
Small Town Effect 

Rolling hills and drug deals 

Mark my words 

The back of a stop sign is no longer innocent 

Salt

 I’ve always wanted to be in a car crash. 

There is something so settling about the way I would watch the car come at me. 

My heart would pound and my feet would try to brake,

 But something inside me would want to hit the gas. 

To seize the moment and wreck us both for what we are.
The metal would wrap around me as the impact shook my tethered body.
The crunching sound would be almost too beautiful to focus on life.

And maybe,

Just,

Maybe death would come.
Maybe I would see just who pretends to care about me,

The people whom I barely know grieving over my lacquered casket.

Salty tears from their salty beings.

Fuck you.
