Introduction
Dedication
this is the best way i could start my first book
you know how like sunset and sunrise look similar this is that
a dream you have when the blanket is too heavy for the weather
this prompt was random triangle so i had to mention it
excelsior and other expressions of jubilation
i can write dystopian fiction its just not usually my genre so
unicorns and stray cats what could i say to that
try to picture a human body doing this stuff like communicating
fear factor wasnt easy for the creatures either
art is dumb and you know it
heres a slogan to live by like real words of wisdom if you want
its at this point that im getting a little tired of these names
a lot of questions for an inanimate object
i dont know whos job this is but they deserve a medal
do you think archeologists get the sniffles
theres something about corpo speak thats haunting
hEeHaW i think i heard this in a movie somewhere
people say the weirdest things when theyre trying to be serious
its scary to think about how the earth is moving underneath
this is how it feels even though its not how it is
one time I ran a cold tap on a hot baking pan but this poem isnt about that
whoever said surrealist poetry is dumb might be right
sometimes the shortest poems take a long time to write
this is just a list of things so dont read into it
have you ever been in an earthquake i was when i was five
I wont think of the spoon i wont think of the spoon i wont think of the spoon
have you ever had this convo i hope not
cynicism has its price but im willing to pay the toll
we dont have trains for transit where im from but this is what i imagine it would be like
This used to be my charm i used to be all that sad boi broken heart charm you could wear me on your arm but i had a habit of dragging humble bragging finger wagging so hard that it must have snapped off at least a couple of times you sewing it on between my inverse ideas of how you should help me heal and how without the help i wouldve been fine
