heaven is the silence you presented
all wrapped in chalice and neatly printed
the moon withholds grudges but not glares
unlike our choices, we’re stuck on who cares

poems after midnight: my specialty

the last line could be better – i’m not saying it’s not a good line

i don’t have a husband to edit my poems

there was a guy once who tried to enhance me – and i mistook it for love

like i would send him my lines and he’d be like “it’s really good as is but you could do this”

and it was the opposite how i felt getting back an essay i’d written where the college professor even red marked the title

like sometimes them professors made you feel like you wish you were never born

it took 4 days to write and them 30 seconds to terroize

but he wasn’t like that with my words

he was gentle

and i yelled at him and all his friends

i mean – to be fair – i have been possessed – by parasites

i ain’t been acting according to myself – whoever that may be – cuz i don’t want it to be her

becoming someone new is difficult but they say 6 months is all you need

and 7 years to grow a new spine

so thank you for your silence – because ironically – your voice is the only one i want to hear 😐


even the accents – those too

i mean i like yelling at you?

all i said was “i like your voice”

and you were like “it’s not mine”

and i’m like “you don’t gotta be rude” and like instantly i knew that i don’t belong anywhere in this Satanic society cuz i always humiliate myself

i like to pay compliments

they cost a lot

maybe you could (or someone) could write a story about that

i’m sure it was already done

but God likes stories

now i can’t attest or speak solely for God

but like – who doesn’t like a good story?

could you maybe do audiobooks?

wordpress allows audio

im shadowbanned in society

an outcast

but tiktok wants me to sell u stuff

like what would i sell you? a pill for happiness? the next best detox?

a mini trampoline?

GUYS THESE SOCKS ARE GREAT FOR JUMPING

like can i just focus on writing poetry and not jumping off a bridge?

i do not want to commodify myself?

i do miss blogging but

not at the cost of my soul

i miss having a real life

offline

and until i figure that part out

then idgaf about being online

the landlord out here emailing 24 hour demands or else

so im packing my bags

and deleting my personal email

im not on call 24/7 for the fucking landlord

AS IF…

me the next time anyone anywhere anyone anywhere anyone anywhere


and not to be dramatic but mygunsoesnothaveasafety

or – the safety is actually on the trigger

so i mean my name is registered to something i cannot return nor do not want

ghost guns are legal huh

never knew of those before

andnowiwantone

and a story written about a ghost gun


so any premeditated thangy is an act of terrorism huh

and our private trash is public treasure

better start burning

they can’t track cash transactions

you can’t keep low in public unless u wanna take claim

Boomers are greedy hungry rats

people don’t care if u got an inheri – they will try and drain yer wallet

they won’t even say “sorry for your loss” but prob something like “not deserved”

well i wasn’t praying for my dad to die…

i identify as another lost angel

and sadness is all i have to sell

but i am happy to be packing and moving God knows where again?

im learning to be the lion in the den

im the lion tho and u better pray i am sleeping

ta ta 4 now

luv u
