Dear Cara
Dear Cara,
grocking
this is the 7th canonical
non-upsetting epileptic dream a bee
under the tongue
replace a penny with abundance
cherries dogs breath
ANDY WARHOL you were wearing your pants backwards
it was your birthday we loved it
in equally adorable shapes
my talk’s gone all funny
unremarkable slow and slow
shot out of a dixie cup
theres no autonomy in fucking anymore
its not even heroic
Dear Cara,
2 anesthesiologists bought the house
it was 4:04 am all red
in the face anxious in the gut sour
round the mouth unremarkable
this work is not hard, beautiful, romantic
Cara I am not trying to be romantic no
its 9:54 and I’ve eaten
breakfast 3 times over the other end
of Spruce dogs on strings (the good unprovoked ones)
court orders brain plasticity the irony of American
Banking I just want to be put in my box
Cara I love the walks and I think they are the emotions way out
but I just want to be put in my box
back in my box
