This is for you.
But I will **** you like the bible should be ****** not all soggy and misremembered No, like a true gentleman, I’ll pull your hair a little and I’ll whisper some things that echo like inside mother’s womb Don’t ask me to ‘cause I won’t call you back Burp up some acid reflux onto my chest and tell me it looks like ectoplasm, let’s get those demons out of you bring out the Ouija board and let’s smash it, I know they’d just hate that This isn’t clairvoyance, it’s black metal dance music and you’re stripping for me like I am your father or some other guy with too many tongues and I know one day I’m gonna write way too many poems about Your youth is growing out of you but it’s not a petunia, it’s more like that alien in the movie Alien and it’s telling me in the wrong language fdjsodsfaokdncvmjklclkmewa so I take it as a mixed signal so I take it as a yes I have made lovers feel like they’re a bailout but tonight, darling I’m gonna make you feel some astral projection and you won’t see God but you’ll see how many prophecies my sheets have made up

I am no Abraham
Yesterday was my father’s 60th birthday so I called him. How many times have I heard tears of joy at the end of a receiver? I don’t know how to answer these things, I do not have a response to my own age sadness nor my father’s. I told him I had class and hung up. Sometimes, I wonder why god does not give me a phone call. It seems everyone has been hearing from him lately and I wonder if it is because I do not brush my teeth in the morning or if it is because I spit on Ricky’s pants in third grade. He called me foxy I just wanted to be human. Do you think people are ghosts until they speak their mind? Look at Anne Frank and Michael Jackson- They are the closest things to humans I can find when I look in gutters and radio signals (I don’t find much there) I bet you’re the type of person who looks in between couch cushions and finds job interviews and an always loving mother who will never forget to pack you a lunch and will always remember the exact time of your birthday or your soccer schedule I bet you and god talk on a regular basis You are the type that I wish the best of luck to out of respect but never necessity and you tell me my eyelids are too heavy and I should stop ironing out my poetry I want to write you a letter and dot all of the eyes with hearts but I don’t mean to be ****** at all, I’m sorry I just miss feeling as good as my first kiss which wasn’t very good but I am running out of firsts and last is my least favorite word in the dictionary Tonight I will try calling god, but my roommate will pick up the phone and instead I will crawl into an envelope and wait, wait-- I hope this is not something that will disappoint you
