Ode to Divorce

Aint nothing
Like mussed up
People, barely in love,
Barely paying rent,
Barely keeping their life together, plus
All the while,
Living in such close proximity
To someone that
They hate.

The ampitheatre / The stage play.

One of the minor characters had been manipulated to obey or to internalize the preferences of an imaginery father. There was an imaginery mother who had the imaginery word “perfect” tatooed upon her imaginery forehead. The minor character spent a good part of the day fulfilling the emotional needs of these imaginery people. Until a kind of doomsday, armeggedon,...

The problem with edna st vincent millay
Is that she’s so
preposterously good
And then just moments later, in the
Next stanza
So ungodly dry and textbook formal
One might even say, curiously boring.

She’s on fire for seventeen seconds,
But then grows cold, becomes calmed
Just biding her time.
Filling the spaces with rhymes, as if there’s
A limited number of
Amazing things to...

The author of the worldbook
Came back to check
His work.

He looked and saw the pages moved
And some of the
Words had changed.

How could it be?
I only wrote this worldbook
Eleven hours ago.

And yet it breaths and bleeds
And makes up things that I
Have never known.

There sometimes comes a time, when due to tiredeness or whatever else is going on, a person finally realizes the things theyre actually best at have become the things they hate the most.

When a certain person
doesnt get
her way, a certain person
goes insane.

This time of year and me do not get along. I need some intense sun, and constant...

Sandra Cisneros intrigues
And confuses me.
I dont usually understand
Whats between the lines
or what it definitely means according to
the proper way of thinking.
But I dont mind
its quite all right
To be twirled till I fall
for the simple joy
Of a momentary buzz
Plus some immediate new
Perspective on an ordinary life.

No me molestes, por favor

Watch it guy,
Stop it with the Touching
I believe that having sex
is nicest when
it occurs
in private spaces
In a phrase,
Dont fondle me
In front of
Family
Its not about love
or being civilized
Its about lust
and its about having
self-control

I had this idea that lust is good,
But its somewhat antithetical to the...

i flee from you're terrible throaty whirrr
i escape into that great big thesaurus in the stars

that i will never miss you, not at all

sometimes i wonder

if maybe i accidently entered another dimension

because nothing else explains that fact

that george bush is president

and yet hardly anybody else is saying

what the fucking cunt is going on

over and over again, all day long

I think at some point, whether i want to or not, i might become a christian accidently, like when i'm 95 years old. I might fall off a precipice, or down an abandoned well, and have no way of getting up and out, and suddenly I'll become a christian. I am terrified of this. I can't help believing that there's something interesting going on with...

as long as someone's exhausted

as long as there's no threat of violence

as long as all talking is stopped

dreams might come to pass, in delicate brains

but soon an alarm rings

it can't be quieted

“notice something very important is going on...”

what the hell is it though?

what is it even supposed to mean?

clang, clang, pause, bang,

god, i give up,...

the advice that sucked.

do what makes you happy.
do what makes sense logically.
do what i suggest.
do what seems best
according to my pet theory of how
the world works.
do that amazing thing that all the world loves
so that all the world will
smother you with compliments and hugs.
do whatever it is you fear.
do deny who you are, so...
