Don't Look Downdon’tlookdown
don’t look down
        don’t
                 look
                          down.

She’s hiding her heart behind the fortress walls
of her tightly compressed skin stretched over
her love starved skeleton; she’s begging for redemption.
She lives on leftover wishes that have been thrown
away and rejected by shallow girls who have it all.

i sold my heart to a physicianyou smell like crystal meth overdoses.
(not that i know what that smells like)
this is more than your overthecounter
tylenol prescription.  you're more than
a prescription (and i hate rhyming but)
you're an addiction, a malediction even.
a subscription to a magazine i wouldn't
read -- just stare at the pretty pictures.
stare at the pictures. become abducted
by jealousy. tear out my eyes. eat them.
tear out my mouth. eat it.  realise that's
absurd.  not care.  care.  not care. care.

not care. care not.  carry your picture
in my wallet.  the one where y

from inside my veins.i want to sing out of tune,
become undone, fly a giant
marshmallow to the moon;
i want to jump on a sponge
three miles long and a mile wide.
i want to speak in bubbles,
just to pop all the words i wish
i hadn't said.

because i'm allergic to the sound
of wind-chimes, sea-food, and the
coasts of france.
i'm dying to become someone, but i don't
think i have a chance.

so i will throw my beer caps away,
i'll light the warehouse all ablaze.
and maybe i could lay down in the grass,
maybe i could sleep beneath
the constellations, dream about
Achilles' heels, take a breath
and breathe out sunflowers.

oh, it could happen,

kicking me back to square one
every time i pass a checkpoint,
a finish line, another either-or
statement. either you or me.

either you're in love
or i'm crazy (in love)

either you were totally looking at me
the other day when i was whispering
your name through my teeth, smiling
or i'm just imagining things. as usual.

either i'm your target goal
or something.

in any scenario,
i'd take the former.
but there's a bad chance
that there's a bad chance
that it's the latter.

A Chemist Walked Into A Bar...And yelled at the bartender,
GIMME ALL THE C2H5OH YOU GOT!!

204 ways to start a letter -C?1) dear boy, fuck you.
2) dear girl, i'm not a hooker !
3) dear mom, i'm not a porn star
4) dear jenna jameson, magazines beg to differ
5) "Dear dad, I'm a hooker but i prefer fake sex."
6) "Dear Senator, I'm a transvestite."
7) "Dear lampost, you look so bright tonight.."

one if by paper, two if by seai will compare you to a comparison
about me just so i can hear you say
"no one's ever said me that before"

i will fold you into an origami swan
and place you in my pocket just so i
never feel alone, never feel unloved.

i will kiss your paper cheeks,
smooth the creases, making a
new crimp. art. manipulation.

i will reform you into an airplane
and toss you into the river. one
more thing: i forgot to fuel you.

i will watch as you pretend
you can evolve into a boat,
and i will watch you drown.

sleeping to dream.last night, i dreamt of you.

you were trapped between the hot, urgent waves of my pulse and the cool, twisted sheets of my bed. you were desperate and angry and everywhere. i couldn't breathe, couldn't think, couldn't live around you. i was sinking in your chest and praying against your throat and the moon washed us silver with approval. the stars looked down and smiled for such young, frantic lovers are hard to find.

we were more than the earth, more than faded myths and legends buried beneath the silt. we were closing gaping distance with hungry mouths and sealing ancient promises with naked desire. we gave it all to one another as i stri

Smile For The Crowd BabyYou bought me like a politician buys eager voters
With oily smiles and slick silken words
Pushing grit and grime through your professionally straightened ivory beads
Staining them grey with phrases like "you are beautiful" and "we are timeless"
I will connect the dots on your freckled knees
Bound them together with my interpretation of Orion's belt so that when you try to stand you will fall to the floor and land splayed across the tiles of my cloudless sky
You will fight to be free but I will simply mirror your governor's smile back at you and tighten the buckle
My words will not be mud pushed through my sharpened teeth but instead th
