wow, nothing’s changed at all

some memories remain allegorically more

“good” or “bad

or “routine”

every time an ambulance zooms by

i freak out a little bit thanks mom

that’s more you than me

the idea of a cat

or a cat in the abstract

private, distant, passionate, turbulent

seductiveness, horror

“there is no solution because there is no problem.”

i think i can convince you otherwise

someday your prince will come too fast

because i can’t look you in the voice

king of skeletons, egypt

my notes on sobriety are the same as my notes on intoxication:

i want to go over there,

it looks like they’re having fun!

and

are we having fun yet?

i don’t acknowledge whatever law you’re talking about,

but i do need to dye my roots

thinking about suicide - no, about the logical diffi culty of hanging

oneself with a belt

i found myself writing these... slogans

slogans for paintings

it was never about the art, it was about the choice of words

i wonder if i am remembering right?

but i don’t believe in poetic community service, do i?

why do i prefer dated media?

further and further from the idea of perfection

sell it all but the books

we can’t accept the monkey that made us

love note before me

i wrote in not believing in love, so...

take me then leave me

use time and exchange time

never explain, never apologize

who now wears fake yeezy’s claiming the real?
