poems

you know,
small details

•

I promise I promise
to keep my
grades up
I forgot to mention
however
that I
don’t go to school no more

•

what is the matter
besides the constant
threat of
world destruction
over your head?
really, what was
ever guaranteed to you?
nothing
you don’t have
even the
next five minutes
you better
recognize

•

I could
be doing
nothing
but something
in me tells
that it’s best
I keep busy
and produce
so here
are words
from my head

•

I don’t look down
anymore
I want to look
so hard
into that camera
I want it to break
I’ll lose
my eyesight
in the lens

•

I do these push ups
then I increase them
as I get stronger I realize
I could have my back
more straight as I’m
closing in on the ground
then this number decreases
I’m getting
more correct
and I’m breathing better

•

you are so married
I can tell you
a little danger
don’t stop being
your whole self
don’t start depending
on someone else
to do all these things
for you
you can wash your
own clothes and cook
your own food
you can be glad to
do it

so motherfucker
why don’t you
break out of that
married MAN mentality
and get to work for yourself

•

don’t
wait
to
read

•

angered
damn
it’s my
own blood
poisoning me
I stay
alive
and fight
the poison
