You *******
You love me like
You're trapped you
can't get out and
tell me one more time
It won't make a difference
Biding time for nothing now
You'll never find your place
Wishing you could have my hand
Needs replaced, a chased embrace
frail ivory wood stutter
yellow chirps brisk muttering
waxy apples;
count the numberless peels of laughter
obvious obscure

majestic white trial of ripple wrought collapsing
a copper roar embellished slick black death

litter the mossy path beads of dew
residing dangerously in the womb of day

but come residue of chaos. eat the organized
lists

unmatchedloss y   ou          R tears shatter

                right
Call a                          doctor/ plumber/ priest
My heart is               broken/ leaking/ deceased

My life is                   worthless/ so much better/ over
I'm going to              **** myself/ tell your wife/ Dover

How could you         leave me/ not know/ lie?
I hope you                return my stuff/ come back/ die

I'll never                   forget you/ forgive you/ go away
I need                        closure/ a DNA test/ to tell you I'm gay

Your                           face/ crotch/ top of your back
Is                                so beautiful/ lumpy/ unusually slack

Your                           ex/ mother/ best friend from school
Always made me      great coffee/ feel inadequate/ drool

I will                           miss you/ **** you/ stalk you forever
That way we can      be friends/ get away with it/ be together

I'm sorry                   you did this/ I did this /we failed
I promise to               pay you/ dye it back/ get you bailed
Please don't               leave me/ show the Polaroids/ write or call

It’s all right, zombie husband.
I didn’t like the dog.
Or the twins.
Seriously, all they did was cry.
It’s like, “shut up, already”,
You know?
