that's all you are, he said: love addiction. everything is a drug these days but it's all pluh-see-boh, haven't you heard? keep grinding the sugar into the carpet. keep telling yourself it's not the amphetamines making you jumpy. all the scabs you're carving out hook themselves onto me and they're rah-vuh-ness, can't you see i'm getting oh-so-thin? my skin is healing over the ants. yesterday i picked them up because i saw them drowning i was almost distracted by the dandelions, you sneaky ******* because they look just like your freckles dotting the lawn but they were suffocating under the ice-cream i dropped it melted and crushed the flowers too. they're swollen and ripe and bowtie boy says it's feh-cun-duh-tee, can't you give that to me? i know your hands are starving. i know you're empty and all you dream is to lick the sweat from my slick thighs holding my virginal knuckles tight in your callouses take me back home when you're sober, roh-mee-oh
