i am thinking of your beautiful face

please kick me in the head

i would appreciate it


dusty fireglow, and one orange circle in the dark

i am an ashtray

you drop your beer glass and it shatters

the tinkling sound carries on chiming in my head all evening


now it's quiet

there are two plastic barrettes in my hair

there is sick on my shirt

i feel lovely tonight

the mirror says otherwise, so i kiss it, and it is swayed


i am thinking

why do i make love so disgusting

you are such a sweet doll


i am thinking

when i go to sleep i want to wake up in the NICU

and you will say

goodnight, neon tubed baby

and i will say
