I screamed at my mother until my voice hurt  I knew I was crazy but I was so scared she looked at me  like I was her cup of coffee  that had spilled I’m afraid I can get in trouble  for being afraid following the dog days  when you dogged me  in all ways  nothing kept me grounded I forgot about the earth heart was electrified need for sleep unrecognized I walked towards  who I left for you  hoping that if  I slept with him  you'd hear about it  you’d be jealous when you called me button  you were really saying  you couldn’t join two parts  without my help now you can only text me when  you’re alone  unlike when you needed me  to keep your hole  from tearing apart

I screamed at my mother until my voice hurt  I knew I was crazy but I was so scared she looked at me  like I was her cup of coffee  that had spilled I’m afraid I can get in trouble  for being afraid following the dog days  when you dogged me  in all ways  nothing kept me grounded I forgot about the earth heart was electrified need for sleep unrecognized I walked towards  who I left for you  hoping that if  I slept with him  you'd hear about it  you’d be jealous when you called me button  you were really saying  you couldn’t join two parts  without my help now you can only text me when  you’re alone  unlike when you needed me  to keep your hole  from tearing apart
The day I realized that it was okay to be upset at my ex and a fight between the only person I have left, my mother, ensued.
