"weaky" poems
steel wool woven into my tendons
pricking stringy veins
in vain i wore you
steal me some wool
for a sweater too scratchy for my pink skin
steel wool on a kitchen sink
sanding my baby forearm pink
stringy veins leaky weaky
making stained sweater splotchy
your lipmarks my hipmarks our ripmarks
thank you kindly for a lovely sweater cheri
i'll wear it till my pink ripens raw rotten cherry

that's the thing on the tip of my tongue
in a heart i felt nothing
but i had some dawns in me already
breaking truth
that else is not always else
and my self was not always myself
and i trust this and i need this truth
and if it's called selfishness
then i admit it to be
i swear it to be
because a heart where there is nothing else
only comes about for me
an end, i reach, came finally
all that was amind
was mine.
the biggest fog, cloudiest bog
aggregated aggravation
wish i could go around and change the notation
never MIND the abject self-criticality
i mind it the most when you mess with my practicality
cause i'm sick of this big big fog that i carry in me.
you wanna carry this for me?
i carry it for no reason but
an old commitment i used to have for interreality
and this isn't really my reality
this is your reality
so we play, and when we do, we play across the line
and when we cross your faults, they become mine
but like always
i'll take them
it's fine
forgetting i'm already sick of the weather
forgetting i don't know how to make it better
forgetting it forgetting it
filled of others
I'M FILLED with others
of what else?
you say else never was the anti-me
but i fought inner wars to have it reconciled in me
well, in any case,
your else, i used to make it mine
but here i fulfill my own. disown disown disown
cause i've laid no ties to this weaky throne
nor to the cloudy ****** weather i'm gonna have
overthrown
belonging to all these people i asked to leave me alone
by the way, they never left me alone
till i finally left me alone
honey i'm home
honey honey
i'm home
i'm more than skin i'm more than bone
but i'm not you
i'm my own
i keep thinking
if only i had known
if only i had known
