i'm no drama queen
but
jeeesus

i am on a roll

what in the
hell
is going on?!

things have gotten
pretty **** exciting
up in this piece

for one,
i can't seem to
shut my trap
words are just
tumbling all over
the place
and i don't know what
to do
other than to
pick them up
put them in order
and fling them
into the interwebs

the second i know something
i don't know it
so i don't know, man...
just don't take life personally
or some ****

slight detachment
and observation
of this bizarre
circus
i find myself in
is sometimes
really ****** funny

just move along...
nothing to see here, people!

i feel like an animal
in a zoo
surely someone is
watching me flail
and flap around
gripping tight the master key

but that doesn't seem funny.
           now i am not amused.
              and i don't believe it.

something important
is just out of my reach
but i think i'm getting closer

i don't have answers
for any of you
do you have any for me?
other than knowing that
i don't know ****

this is it.
cast out fear and man up.
or at the very least
pretend to do those things.
then you might
have something to talk about.

also,
there is no changing people.
like, for realz
but that is a good thing
i won't try to change any of you
but i will challenge you
because i'm a bull
on a rampage
i'll hold your feet
to the fire
i'll hold your face
in my hands
and look
in your eyes
and i will know things.
you can't squirm away
from me so easily...
i know too many things

so let's just all
hold each other's faces
and look into eyes
that are not our own
and be happy about that.
