Ok so the new mac software has a dictation program. I let it run during an animal physiology lecture, it was so funny I sort of turned it into poetry with a few modifications. (I took out words that it actually got right and were super science-y like T cells and also words like LRP that aren’t things and I only then changed punctuation and physical layout)

Let me know if you can find some meaning or humour in these found poems.

Steve bring it by

when an awesome

when you

I'm selfish
single-minded
greedy
and I don't really give a **** about you
your job.
your kids.
your vacation photos.
that time you put a scarf on your cat.

I'm narcissistic
vain
and more than just a little neurotic.

Worst of all,
I try to pretend that
I am not all of the aforementioned characteristics
while I'm acutely aware of the fact that

I'm ******* awful.

Nice to meet you. How long will this one last?

See Found Poems but these are my favourite.

and your music

and also had pasta


2. 7 mm,

one of the major cities,

you

3.  search process

5. of all conferences

and finish eyes gazing

To be petite
thin
dainty
shy
Why does the concept of femininity revolve around being less than a man?

When you keep us worried about our waistlines
you never have to fear us

hearts don't break
porcleain, glass, bone, spun sugar
all can shatter in a heartbeat
it's so overdramatic to say that hearts can be broken

hearts don't break

instead,  they bruise
like pulverized flesh ran over by 18 wheels
deflated
black and blue
by some lover or another

and when someone tries
to touch
you flinch
your little raw piece of meat within your chest
is just too tender right now

but not broken
broken is forever
bruised is for now

I don’t care if you’re trying to get better
I’m coming back
I can’t leave you alone
Sitting there, thinking you can repair
But I can’t let you do that, can I?
The urge is too great
As soon as there has been enough time
For you to regrow
Crust over
And almost heal
My itching fingers can't resist
And now you’re broken again
seeping.

Still waters run deep
There were flowers beside her
She did not love them

I'd like you to tell me
that you like it when I tuck my hair
behind my ears

That you don't mind how stupid my laugh is
tears running down my face
turning all of me red

That you like
The mottled white dots
on all my teeth,
the freckle constellations on my arms,
and the scars on my knees.

and until there's someone to
like me for these
then I suppose
that person will have to be me.

You are not the rain,
not the steady patter tapping on the windowsill at midnight
nor the soft collarbone kisses in the afternoon
nor the haughty torrential downpour, tamed by no one and no thing
you're just a boy.
You're not the rain.

Hey, if I was blind
I would also wear sweatpants
I understand you

I barely half know you
but we've met before
haven't we?
my fingertips racing up your spine
your hand resting around my throat

when we woke up
I was in your arms
not like puzzle pieces
but like tangled telephone cords

when I woke up
you were gone again
that same person
I only half knew

I think the ears
might just be
the most beautiful
part of the body

now before you object
and suggest
abs, legs, bums, or chests
may I remind you that
in time
all parts earlier addressed
will wrinkle, sag and fade
like ******* the air out of a plastic bag

But not ears.
They are the same ears after 2 years, 5 years and 50 years

They won't wilt
wont lose their form
(unlike abs, legs, bums, or chests)
and that's why
to me
ears are best

Is it possible to be suffocated
by your own skin?
Trapped
beneath your bones?
Praying for a better life,
yet yours is perfect?


At least I can hide in vivid dreams,
between the notes in music
and behind the confident facade that has fooled so many.
Self loathing is the new black.

Please tell me this is my summer
I've never been more gold.

I hope my summer is with him
The sunny days outshine the rain

I want this.
Indefinitely.

Hon, Honey, Baby, Dear, Darling

I really like you

but I like it when you call me my name

somehow that word rolled over your lips sounds silver

and all the pet names in the world:

nails on a chalkboard

she stares at his face
she tries to make a deal but
she can’t force his hands

Life starts to feel fake
when you're enjoying dreams more
than being awake

What simple joy is:
To make a hot cup of tea
and drink it alone

Refuse to believe
that life as we know it is
as good as it gets
