as a kid
there's nothing
like wasting away inside a tiny
room
sitting on the backrest
of the couch
looking out the window
and seeing her
tread through the rain

a red umbrella covers
her.

Mother

she's going back
to the liquor store

best part about having no friends
is having no enemies either
best part of having no significant other
is being able to feel whole by yourself
best part of solitude is
solitude
best part of loneliness is...
I wouldn't know that. I never
felt lonely.

Loving you is the purest act
I' ve done in my life

Even if you don't care
I won't change a thing

sweet things always hold out
but salty things will always do
that's why I liked popcorn
until they made kettle corn
now how can I possibly choose?
