your languid lines
under my calloused hands

we see clearer in the dark

our little scandal

i call myself a poet
but i've deceived them all
i'm really just sad
and waiting for you to call

not a poem

if overthinking was a game
i'd put all my chips in
and i wouldn't be bluffing

i'd use the money on a xanax overdose

holding hands
in the farmers market
all sweat and skin

the smell of the blue sky
so close
to our intertwined fingers
that we can almost
breathe

and your dimpled smile
made everything perfect

all tangled up and stuck together
with wax

i'm a mess i'll never learn how to clean
and i'm vegan
so i can't use glue
