this is the food we eat
the liquid we drink
the ideas we digest
got to taste
remarkable

then chickens
showed up
let’s
eat an egg

gathered together
in a room
full of urgent
left there to cry

ending
with a pretty plate of
alone

guessed left
took the road Tahoe
ate a watermelon seed
called that equivalent
still here while
trusting concern

always
back to no
success
is everywhere

you win
u did it

drunk half the time
the other half
filled
with laughter

not normal
seen as weakness
saw it coming
tried
destroying peace
succeeded
moved on
destructive love
never give up
always tribulations
a doomed god
exposed
revealed
an alternative
the human miracle

right
buy yourself a
hot pretzel

one day
will go
to Harvard
but
right now learning
the capital of
Texas
is not even Dallas
or
houston

looked up to
you because
you were nice

surfacing
it always does

whenever you say
anything
which
by the way is not
very often
do not worry
I
will not believe you

barely old enough
to
own a gun

to old to
understand

barely old enough
to
get an erection

to old to
waste time

you would think so
anyway

barely
old enough

at the store
where
they sell
beer and cookies

pot buy the pre rolled

where
they sell boxes
just
add water and dream

I want to be
a pharmaceutical sales representative
me too

want
to go to school and
read
about tomorrow

at the store
they rent nightmares
daily

there is a line sometimes
crossing
2 major streets

for now
my heart is beating

we
were in a car once
did not know
where I was

stop
I want to get a burrito
smoke
a carton of cigarettes too

you would
laugh
Who is
the crazy nut
in back

didn’t know
where I was
and
did not care

always dreaming

so I left

where it was not
that is where
you end up
there

lost
inside this moment
that
never existed

Don’t
make me go
would rather
stay
here be
more than time
be ever
lasting

she said all
that
while
taking a picture
