someday i’ll be able to buy a guitar
from my own money and smash
it against my head,
until either the wood of it
or my skull cracks.
i don’t really mind because
i would probably end up being a
madwoman after months of getting a job
and working hard for the money
that i will then save and hide at the
farthest place in my closet ’cause i want to
reach the price of the guitar that i
badly want to buy.

and then after smashing it,
i will think about
the guitars other musicians have
destroyed. and then i will cry because
i am no musician, therefore i have
no rights to break a musical instrument.
and i will regret
buying it because i should have spent
my money on cheese burgers.
and i will be left with chunks of wood,
broken strings and bleeding head.
but i will be happy too because i am
satisfied with the little song i made
while beating myself with the
guitar i bought
fresh from the shop.
