Sometimes
I wash the dishes
Sometimes
I sing while washing the dishes
Sometimes
I cry while washing the dishes

Sometimes
I dream of faucets
Sometimes
I dream of things that cannot happen
Sometimes
I cry because all I can ever do is dream

Sometimes
I feel like I own the world
Sometimes
I feel like I'm unimportant
Sometimes
I feel nothing at all

Sometimes
I think light bulbs are amazing
Sometimes
Stray dogs make me believe in tomorrows
Sometimes
Life in all its grandeur isn't enough

Sometimes
I hate the heat of the sun
Sometimes
The deep sea calls to me
Sometimes
I am deaf to everything

Sometimes
I am overwhelmed by the cosmos
Sometimes
I think everything is one-dimensional
Sometimes
There are stars in the city sky

Sometimes
I listen to people drone on and on
Sometimes
I find myself speechless
Sometimes
I am terrified of the words that storm from my heart

Sometimes
I hate the world
Sometimes
I hate the hate
Sometimes
I hate for no reason

Sometimes
I read news about measles
Sometimes
I eat and eat and feel guilty afterwards
Sometimes
My poems just don't make sense.
