polaroid

a thousand pinpricks of light
sunbeams dissolved in concentrated words and memories
gaps in teeth and blanks in speech
salty waves and flushed cheeks
your aura is the most beautiful

i've ever seen.

gingivitis

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.

2% sucrose

when you are young
your taste buds are
naïve and
the sweetest thing of all is
destruction.

as you age your tongue
grows wiser but
no matter how sour
revenge tastes now
it has saturated the roof of your mouth
and it stings your gums like
vinegar.

muse in molasses

Sunburst passions
Put to a pen
The ink comes out
But the creativity stays in

Ideas like fireflies,
Die.
Drowning in the acid of
Reason and
Test scores and
Club minutes and
Alumni money and
The future.

But what good is my future if
I don’t want to be part of it?
