GLUM CHUM

by @maia-vasconez

velvet scrunchie balled up money I feel funny I feel funny wet feet dead meat you and me are dead meat ripped tights bug bites another street fight my wings are damp kites forgot a light, can I bum yours? scratched disks, you are the sound I missed when the record skipped someone said I belong in a trash bin broken chin crooked grin too thin too thin tattoos made with a safety pins yes she was star lit, lying face down on the carpet I love her this way wish she'd pass out here everyday I got voicemail again! I write these letters and you never respond would you like me better if I said something nice about your sweater? I feel sick again fever, chills, muscle aches it only happens when you flake it only happens when you flake I think I have the flu ya I probably do this cant be heart break no it cant be heart break you call me glum chum I think I know why I haven't smiled in awhile I have scars on my thighs I drink wine, get high spill about how much I hate life you call me glum chum but I wipe crumbs off your mouth with my thumb don't play dumb don't play dumb also don't swallow your gum
