All I do is sit and stare and sleep. I want to eat honey, I want to **** this guy, I want to jump out of my window. How would they react if I were purged from my room through the window? The room would hiccup and take a nap. And it's only the second floor. I thought that maybe I should come with a warning and waiver or a stamp on my face that says "crazy." Then I realized that I do. Today I'm inhaling rejection, the fluid and the fire, anywhere I go the noises and movements wear me threadbare. I'm textured to be foolishly angry, anxious, sad, empty. No one ever touches me. I bet if I jumped out of my window, the air would feel cold and the grass would feel cold and I'd probably only break an arm. I am a vacuum inside.

Coddling the Borderline
Your head on my chest: thumping hare and cerebral mess, the electricity and disconnects drove my rhythms out of breath. I didn't know that this was you: a tantalizing wit in lieu of the neurological faculty to feel my chest pounding for you. You are a palpable glitch, with a brute heart and incisive wit: my form deflated under it, I gasp, writhe, and then submit. My eager sentiment waits for the sound of your breath catching then and now and I think that you'll come around when you grasp at me and moan aloud. But you are steadily in place, I, silly hare running a race, breathless face your backward truth, the callous fate, the need you can't reciprocate.
