Scaling and zooming in
On my porcelain skin, a rainbow colored heart in my hand
And poetry, you will never understand.

Calculations and budding numbers
Our paths differ and conflict
You can't make your clock alarm sound
And drown time next to me.

44 pages worth of poems, hours spent over the internet
Remember how you would say "baby, thats some good ******'"
I know you must recall when you walked into my door
Took me into your arms, lecture me about my little baby tops
I no longer wear for you.


I believe that human beings choose to be too busy
I believe that human beings make 5 minutes of their time
For those we deem a priority.
So thats the answer to the equation
You could have just drawn me a graph
But I hope my echoing laugh,
Haunts your cleft chin and water eyes.

Like Venus but in mermaid glory
I swim away from the shore
Of what I thought I had before.
Latin America quakes all around you
As I rip off the last button on my blouse.

I hope you are well.
I am glad to see you are well.
But I don't wait or appreciate promises
That hold no weight.

I placed your polaroid inbetween two plays,
Several days ago the titles jeering:
"A Fool For Love" and "****** Adulto Escapes From The Zoo"

Where did I learn how to dance the way I dance?
You can't teach electricity.
