I have become a pornstar who doesnt fuck
A writer who never writes
a sponge who never squezes
and here I am, in drought
lost down south in an American nightmare
my stomach knots
and reminds me of oak trees
in a fog of white noise
my palms are sweaty
and my head, anxois
shoulders tense
and I am forgotten
as is the smirk
i tried to remind everyone about
with the revalutions
distilled to apathy
drowning drunks
dissipate
i compare fate
to a match book
peel back
strike slow
and admire
the glow
before it burns out
and the smell of sulfer
saunters
displaced like so many
match sticks before
disregarded
as it once was, is and will be
