When I grew up my mom would cut coupons and scrounge for change in the sofa to buy me a chicken nugget happy meal McDonalds. She would cut coupons and would only buy nectarines if they were on sale. I grew up eating bologna sandwiches with kraft cheese slices and potato chips. I think your mom had different priorities. The man at Starbucks, told me that opposites attract and I think that is why were together. He told me a Intuitive Innovative Feeler. Does that mean that you are oblivious and emotionless *** I don't think so? Lately I have been whining a lot. Whining about where we live, what we do, what we don't do, how you act, how you don't act, about how your mom wants us to water the brussels sprouts that no one likes and clean the toilets no one uses. Sometimes I say things to hurt your feelings. Sometimes I mean it. I word them so that they are as hurtful as can be and you never react. Is it bad to want to make you cry? You test my sanity everyday, you break me every day, and here I am still trying to chip away at the facade, the make up you cover up with. I think living in the mountains has taught me about all the things that I don't want to be. I don't want to be cut off, I don't want to be nice, I don't want to be liberal, I don't want to be conservative, I don't want to see the same people everyday, and I definitely don't want to spend eleven dollars on heirloom tomatoes.

You spent eleven dollars on two heirloom tomatoes and I'm the *******
There is a consumer product demon in the trash underneath my sink. The other day, I tossed in a wrapper from a Quest 20-protein-gram nutrition bar and a hand reached up to grab it. Thinking I was daydreaming I pulled out the white plastic Rubbermaid trash basket; no hand, but the ¼ cup of Kraft Fast Mac tossed in yesterday was moving, undulating. It made a distinct voice-y sound like “You’ll like Mac-a-lot, so eat me!” Thinking this was just my overactive poetic imagination I turned to the sink. My JetZScrubber had wrapped around a spoon dancing in circles around the In-Sink-Erator drain while the Ajax Easy-Hands Dishwashing Liquid spewed bubbles in unison. Now convinced I took too much acid in college I ran upstairs where my dog Mr. Brown sleeps on his 44” x 36” leopard-print GoodDogBed. “Howdy, partner,” Brown chimed. “Sure is a fine day to go for a walk using that Halti multi-loop leader and Sprenger prong collar. Yes, I love ‘em.” I took Mr. Brown to the dog park. the one with the Safe-Steel chain link fence and the pine trees without labels. He pooped in the sawdust and vocalized in his hound voice. I could have sworn he said, “Glad I didn’t do that on the L.L.Bean Woven Nylon Area Rug,” but I wasn’t sure. Nothing moved except the wind in the trees. and I wondered what to call it.

SOMETHING IN THE TRASH
Difference involves a discernable set of identifiable concepts, where soft cheese can be wrapped in cosmetic triangulations. I know that electricity is a paradoxical commodity, where black diamonds resonate with something which is dissimilar to the larger expectations of society. Like I said: miscellaneous conceptions of mature virility are evident to three-sided arguments. Aren’t they? There are three sides to every savoury story.

The Kraft of Daring Behaviour
Vi lovede hinanden hele den store verden dengang Tiderne var anderledes, klokken var 22 når den var 17. Vi havde stjerneregn af kæmpemæssige følelser Som vi åd af hinanden, slikkede og fik kuldegysninger. Lange aftener, som fik det hele til at vare dobbelt kort. Jeg er ikke engang sikker på at jeg savner det Eller dig. Eller noget af det vi gjorde sammen Men en del har bidt sig fast. Jeg er blevet ramt Af en virus. En fejl i mit liv, som du har plantet I mig og min indre globe og færden, når jeg søger Efter ting, som jeg umuligt kan få, finde eller fjerne Jeg er syg, og mit immunforsvar svækkes, men Jeg går i skole. Jeg lever mit liv videre, med Tanken om at jeg ikke ved hvornår det stopper Jeg vil lukke følelsen af dig/det/os ud af mig selv Du styrer alt det du ikke må og du får alt så let Så jeg lever livet videre, jeg lærer at ignorere det mave Sår du har plantet i mig. Jeg sover det væk. Drømmer mig væk fra realiternes smerter. For jeg kan Ikke klare det hele. Jeg ser ikke klart. Jeg mærker ikke Det lys som alle siger kommer, og når de andre fortæller Mig at det hele er hurtigt glemt. Tvivler jeg på mig selv og På mine følelser. For jeg har ingen følelser, ingen tanker Ingenting. Jeg har ikke noget og jeg er fortabt. For alt hvad Jeg vil have og eje er fysisk kontakt med dig. Jeg vil se på Dig se på mig. Jeg vil have at du fortæller mig at jeg er smuk Og så er det det, efter vi har kysset. Så er det det. For man skal Ikke sådan noget. For det spil vi spiller er farligt. Med et hug Bliver man slået hjem. Hvis ikke man lander på stjernen eller På verdenstegnet. Så er det hjem, uden noget som helst. Vi er en tikkende bombe. For hvor mange sekunder går der IKKE før du egentlig finder ud af hvem jeg er, vi er, du er. Til du finder ud af at du er bedre. Jeg kan ikke. Jeg tænker Jeg kan. Men det hele er forkert. Jeg er kommet til at bruge alt For mange kræfter på ting man kan få kræft af. Jeg er styret af den Kraft du har. Jeg bliver ved med at bryde mig selv ned, selvom de Andre nogle gange prøver at få mig op og stå igen. Det (s)eneste Som jeg ikke har, er alt det jeg ikke kan få. Og jeg ved ikke Engang hvad det er, eller om jeg er sikker på at jeg ved det på Et tidspunkt. Jeg løber en tur væk fra mig selv. Jeg prøver At eskapere fra verden. Jeg er flygtning fra mig selv. Så kom her. Læg dig sammen med mig. Lad os lytte til din stemme Bare et par mange gange, så jeg kan høre på alle de kloge ting Du gør og siger. Ligesom den gang jeg gjorde det før. Dengang det hele var godt. Da vi to ejede verden, og hinanden. Men det gjorde vi ikke. For du er helt ny, opstået så pludseligt, men sådan er det bare.

Choir don't need no Gath Brooks Lordie lord, spam that yawns across earth's lawn, set your glory upon holy sky! Baby talk, HA! That's processed Kraft cheese or strength, babbling to silence avengers. Do you see or does your finger point to Moon, Stars and Kautempathkan. What is a man that you can't remember, Or a son who can't care of man? You've made a name of nameless less. Memhkotainya, name it with dignity. Show some respect for the handywork, they stare beneath our feet. Bleating and mooing, and Yes, beasts in field, chicken **** and fish, sea lane routes to Us, our way Nobly in your ***** named.

My imagination places me on the precipice of a giant void, the wind against my back. I could just turn around.. But I know the truth. I'm already at bottom. I search for the slightest sign of a transient light.. anything that would give me a reason to move. Anything. To make a change. Please? But there is nothing. There's nothing left of me. I'm gone. Lost. The steps I take are mechanical and dull. A last feeble attempt at prolonging the facade that I'm still here. This is my fault. To think I used to be so driven. So awake. I don't sleep anymore. As much as I want to blame you, or the wine glasses my lips have such affinity for, or your haunting indecision.. But what's the point anyway? I curl up on my floor, a heap of mud. An inaudible sigh escapes my lips. A catch in my breath. My attempt to choose which flavor of Kraft would carry my body today has failed. I'm out of time. I'm late. I'm always late. Maybe I won't even go. I hate it anyway. But I can't change it. I am powerless. I tilt my head towards the shelf. I can't lift it. I can't force myself to lift it.   Hair falls over my face. Why am I so weak? It's all my fault. Was I ever enough? I can't even hate you in the ways I wish I could. Even hatred would propel me to stand. But it won't, and I won't. It's too late. I'm always late. Maybe I won't even go.

Motivation
the difference between the way i cooked and the way you cooked is that you would get everything ready first and I would pull things from the fridge as I went, you made everything from scratch but the one thing I taught you was how to make perfect kraft macaroni

Age eighteen, living life as a low-middle class suburban jobless fool with a confusing relationship and a five year old boy. I have nerve damage to my left arm, smokers cough and lesser (haha) alcoholism.     I guess it's macaroni (not Kraft, way too expensive) and cheese (nothing fancy) tonight. I should apply for a new job tomorrow, but I'll probably have something else to do. Besides that, I have no clothes suitable for an interview anyway. My hair is a wild mess. From behind you might think, **** she doesn't have an *** ...but from straight on, you might think, **** he looks like Slash." I do not look like Slash, by the way. At least I think not. Maybe with the right hat, but then, I am way too short. I can sing like Slash, though. I learned to use my voice like, five years ago. How old was I...? I can read like Joseph Ogle. I love reading. I must have been younger when I started reading good material. Must have been a good few years ago... I can draw like Dali. I think I found him out in Middle School... I can play piano like ******* Mozart. I picked up piano earlier... I can write like... ...well, writing is so unique that comparing myslef to anyone is insulting to both.   Anyway, it's my raw talent, skills that I have owned and honed that drives me to be more. They say you have to deal with the hand life gave you, but life decided to give me dice, and a couple chance rolls. I may still have a few left. For as long as I live, I will deny and refute the notion that once you lose everything, you should just give up. I have lost. You can talk to me all day about how sad your life is, and how depressed you are, but unless you do something to change your quality of existence, then you're going to roll snake eyes. Snakes bite, friend. I got a lucky thirteen on my plate. I am content to keep, but I could keep going. What do you have?

Stemmer udefra Overdøver larmen indefra Tomme tankestrømme flyder med kraft Gennem mine hjerneceller. Slår mod kanten af mit hoved Indre afbrudt af ydre Bølgerne af lyd skærer i mine øre Døv for toner og stemmeføring Men ikke for valg af ord. Tunge larmende fraser - Spyttes vildt ud gennem fedtede læber I et desperat forsøg på at Slette sporene i sandet.

sie kniet mächtig unter über unter ihrem Haar du bist süchtig, ihrer blicke, deren Anmut, feurig starr sie erhebt sich, ganz entblößt, doch vollkommen und bestimmt und dann erzählt sie, in ihrer Schönheit, dass sie ist doch noch ein Kind Dieses Mädchen, verworren wild, voller Kraft und voller Geist, OH DIESER ANMUT 
DIESE SCHÖNHEIT
DIESE BLICKE sie sagt leis, oh liebe Freundin, du willst doch nicht, mir weis machen, ich bin du, deine Reinheit, mit meiner, nicht zu vergleichen ist. Und mein Ich, es schaut mich an, so licht, leicht voller Seele. Und als ich denke DAS BIN ICH, kommen die, die fehlen, tausend Mädchen, sie bin ich, ich bin nicht mehr zu zählen.

but now i can eat kraft dinner late on a sunday afternoon with my window open and feel the sunlight now i can turn off my phone without panicking and now now I can breathe without fear coating my lungs and my eyes stop resting on sharp objects and now it's been something like two years and something has changed and the things that used to make me feel something like passion have resurfaced and i realize they never went away i just had forgotten how to feel them and god if i've learned anything at all it's that nothing is ever over and right at the moment where you feel like the world's ****** good and proper and there's no getting off your back is the moment when you realize that you are not made of glass you are not fragile and broken you are ******* marble and concrete you are iron that you have built yourself into and god i wish i could say that's it but you will have to fight you will get your hands ***** as you tear out the parts you need to leave behind but you will plant new roots one day you will look at yourself or someone you love and you will know where you've been and what you have come from and nothing will feel as good as when you realize that you are here you made it

In my dream the drive is nonstop flame with hints of eternal love and force. Open the doors out the dream world, let the essence of Kolor invade your bloodstream. I cannot stop this feeling I feed heavily. I am a bad drug with a brain and a heart beat of a lion, half sheep. Across the indigo sky where the flower may be, the paradise behind the door cry's and the wind acting of life kisses everything in its path of gold textured knowledge. The Luna dancing with the stars in a drunk motion, Kosmik block fiesta. The loaded planets flirting with its neighbor Kreating more Love to water the flowers and roses until they drown in the energy of divine spirit. A god in a 60s head smoker, A drunk and ****** flower in the garden of Love. Nonsense of the most soulful. I stand before the moon with a flower from the future in my hand for the Queen of Universal Love. A simple yet natural complex Kraft Kreated with star dust and stuff of the Kozmo flow. Dazed and Confused. Blazed and Amused...

I think I found the one but which one did I find? so far this fairytale's plot is at once upon a time feels like I'm back at 4 years old with my sleep on hold waiting with bated breathe to see how this story unfolds this is one of those road trips where the phrase "Are we there yet?" will never come from my lips because this trip is about the journey and I am in no hurry As a child I used to go and catch butterflies but now I catch them every time I look into her eyes I not trying to be Kraft Mac-n-Cheezy But I'm falling for her deeply all I know is ONCE I feel her embrace, mind body and soul, and   UPON seeing her smile and hearing her laughter   A blanket of her warmth tucks me in, filling my holes making it     TIME to say happily ever after

kraft dinner
When your sister died, it was the blue box of Kraft Macaroni and Cheese. Your half- sister from your father’s previous marriage cooked it up for you—she was only a year or two older than you were—and you fell asleep there on the floor, where it remained half- finished for the entire night. When you awoke the next day, before you had even opened your eyes, you  thought for a brief moment that maybe it had all been just a dreadful nightmare, but then you opened them and there the macaroni and cheese still sat, half- eaten on that paper plate. No— it had all actually happened. When your coworker fatally poisoned herself, you made up your mind to buy the nicest ingredients you could find and to cook the best Italian pasta recipe you could think of in order to show your family how much you loved them. You wanted to be present with them, to be still alive with them. You wanted to not make the same mistake twice, but then there you were at dinner, distant for the entire meal, unable to even make simple conversation, ashamed of the awful contortions your brain was doing in order to process your guilt over her death. When your father died, it was some left- over soup you had cooked up a week prior. You were embarrassed about how the black-eyed peas and sweet potatoes had turned out; you apologized to your wife for their mushiness, and she smiled sadly and told you it was the best soup she had ever tasted. After a week in the refrigerator, the kale tasted slimy. The soup was overhot; its texture, nonexistent. By this point in your life, the texture of nearly everything—even that of death—had become wholly unremarkable to you. And when your old friend from college died, there was no meal at all—just a hasty cup of black coffee you poured yourself right before the big work presentation began. The text message said that he had thrown himself from atop a skyscraper in lower Manhattan, and that he had finalized his divorce just a few months prior. You thought about calling off the meeting, but your boss said that he would be in attendance and, grimly, you decided to swallow your bitter emotions right along with the coffee—you didn’t want to let him down.

Gott, Lass Freude sein! Denn ich weiß nicht was halb Liebe heißt und dann auch nicht was halb Weh ich weiß nicht wann genug, genug ist. Jede Sekunde schallt in mir mit ihrer ganzen Kraft! Sie tut weh und lindert. Gott, Lass Freude sein heute, diese Tage.. Schick mir lieber Gott während meiner Verwirrungsstunden die Lichtspur einer Hoffnung. Gott, Lass Freude sein inmitten meiner Liebe.

Gebet
Learned more from this pain than i ever did from a church. Listening to your gut but make sure you detox it first. **** be killin me softly, leave me in a Hearse, Never a good thing when i hear from you first. Be careful what you see, even salt look like sugar, Maturity is not throwing salt when you know you could've, And not smackin ******* when you know you should've. People Be like "oh i miss you" **** i miss me too. Had to use these teflon tissues to get me thru, You not alone, **** i wanna be with me too, Deadass On some days , smiles were too good to be true. I be business minded when i be minding my business. And ****** be ******* and ******* be on some ***** **** Overcame this novocain, Recasted the impression of depression, Ring around the rosary, Never relying on religion. Im from a home of funny bones And My elbows been ashy, I knew It would take more than macaroni art to kraft me, And i been itching for this platform If you ask me, I used to wonder if i was a real person. I used to wonder like what's my real purpose? When i was young ,I taught my shadow to stick to my toes, When lifes a battle, I fought to stick to mottos. As a poet i never looked at it this way, I never booked myself for this reading. I was overbooked. I bookmarked my favorite moments , I been forever overlooked. And never understood what "more" ment, I been overcooked. The preheating of this season left me bleeding. This farenheit left me heavy breathin No fear of heights but Excuse me while I fall from - grace - me with your presence and These broken promises, Never been transparent to this degree, Had to leave that monster house. That was my American horror story. I used to be couped up, Had to tell double d to get outta my laboratory, See mfs want my jazz but not my blues, They Wanna be in my class but aint payed they dues, Yall be Morally incorrect, ....More or less... Lately i been Moralless, Need to get saved no church bells , Put me on the zach Morris list, These rhymes be like my confessions, Front row seat to my ascension, Carry out this life to which we've been sentenced, Delivery me from evil - with even more incentives, I dream in MLA format. Double spaced a letter to my younger self, Just some **** I wish i told the older me A ***** laundry list of things I thought ought to be owed to me, My OCD be blowin me, Need all my ducks in a row, My prolonged silence been leading this Crescendo, Im not playing NO GAMES, fuxk you and your Nintendo.

sometimes my heart feels like the arts and crafts project of a first grader, gone wrong. messy Kraft glue, over-applied to the point where the pieces don’t stick — together, we will never be together.

Marvin The Marvelous Robot
jeg er en konstellation af ord kun eksisterende i kraft af spildt blæk og søvnløse nætter jeg har ord under huden, ord i blodet ord på læberne og ord i munden ord under neglene ord i håret ord på skrå, kryds, tværs ord i lungerne ind ud ind ud ind jeg udånder ord ord, der kommer snublende, vaklende frem som om de frygter dagens lys og aldrig tør være andet end usagt; forevigt hvis jeg havde været et ord havde jeg heller ikke turdet
