Backs only look pretty at one angle
otherwise we don't want them

How's my back angle look?
Matthew May 2022
He scrapes the floor boards with his bony toes
Rips the carpet with his jagged scythe
Is he Behind me or in Front of me?
Tell me
please.

You're not a pretty girl

but pretty girls aren't lucky

you are.

Your every single detail
temporarily tattooed
until my fancy wanes.

Right now
you play sweet chords
on my heart strings

You hurt so good right now
I don't know if I'd rather not like you or not.

Whenever relatives come
I know it's time that I put it on
So they can accept me
Restrict my speech and movement
so that I'm palatable for their one track mind
"Do you got a (insert partner of opposite gender)?"
No
Haven't been that lucky.

I'm so hot and sweaty
I feel like I can't breathe.
Maybe I should take it off.

A memory of a memory.

It's skin has dissipated.

It's been peeled back to a naked emotion.

My face goes red.

It lives on...

Why...

You broke my heart
and I didn't get the Warranty.
