mrs kite
It’s that itch in your throat
And the scratching in your brain
The feeling of an idea that has no escape
It stays behind your lips
And sticks to the roof of your mouth
Decays between your teeth
And starts fires under your tongue
It burns your taste buds
And won’t take no for an answer
But it will never see the light of day
Because no one will ever
listen.

you have to be able to love her while she's still, stagnant -
to be able to love her once she starts moving

you were the phone call in the middle of my speech -
I stopped when I noticed you
and now I'm fumbling to try to make you stop

i am
the shopping cart cursed to go towards the right
towards you
it's hard for me to keep going straight, but
if i give in we'll
only go in circles
you will be the death of me

a place that
makes you want to take your earphones off
because you want to hear what the world is throwing at you,
instead of block it out
yuck idk if i worded this right

you have to step into poet mode
an inkling of deepest depth
crosses in front of your eyes
and a first line is born and
you are born with it
gushing along when the waters first broke
splashing around until you regain your mind
ticking along in everyday mode
wearing wellington boots and a cape
the super hero ready for anything

friends are like the ocean
they will surround you and come back and back again to your shores
but when they leave, you will be
a desert
