A Poem For Today
Today left me with questions / Some pretty confusing questions / I thought a lot today

Beside the Point
I drew an exclamation point in the air / I watched it float around / It moved with the people

Changing My Mind
Today's a working day. / One of those days you feel like working. / When you just want things to look good.

Dark (For Isabel)
And there is nothing I can do. / And they wrap around me / And I can't breathe

For Emma and Phoebe
The squeak of rubber soles on the tiled red and black floor. The tripping over ourselves. The track. And you Regina. Making our heads spin slowly. Or Broadway at midnight, Pandora. Dancing, ignoring Mateo next door. After all he is louder than us. Maybe. The July, August, then September sun fading slowly. The gentle kisses of rain on our cheeks and lips. The wet hair, flinging back and forth. Ikea. Rocks. Sexist boys. Thunder. Hipsters. Hips. Chests. Smiles. Laughter. Singing. Dancing. Wet. Perfect. Stage. Dark. These make up our times together. The train. This houses some of them. Ice, cold and hot, slipping over our skin. Water makes us up. We make up our minds. Emails. By the time summer comes, we shall be gone. Taking our chemistry and voices away. Apart we are nothing. Together we are a chorus. Songs. They make up most of what we are. Emotions. They are us.

Him.
Do you like him? / I don't want to. / But you do?

I'm back.
I'm better now / I was sick / In the spirit

I Really Looked
I just looked at something. I mean really looked. / It kind of scared me. / But a gentle kind of scare.

Looking Back
I could've had a million likes / And American Apparel / And too many OMGs, and BTWs to count
