Narcolepsy

Too sleepy to sit,
but too hot to stand outside.
I effing hate school.

Shake Shack

In so few places
is the unhealthier choice
vegetarian.

Twenty Days

Knowing that shortly
you'll be flying to heaven's
not planned suicide.

Uneasy

...and depressed I cry:
"can I be the Sahara
for my xerocole?"

Love/Skiing

The fear of approach
is conquered by the sheer thrill
once you're in the air.

Personal

It's universal,
so I thought, to have neighbors.
Here, they're more than that.

Thirst

From the low fountain
shoots colder, sweeter water—
well worth the hard work.

Linen Pants on Windy Days

Murdered by pants— wait!
I forgot they were linen!
I'm just in heaven...

Ambiguity, Unexplained

What's a man to do
when words contradict themselves?
Like the word "adult".

Salad Days

Nine o'clock pm,
your head on my arm, eyes closed,
we look back, and laugh

Quiet Night

When you feel nothing,
you're probably either dead
or swimming naked.

2000

I'd like to spend life
like the warm nights of my youth,
but she'd be there too.

Happy Birthday Utah

Science will tell us:
all bubbles are spherical
except for Utah.

No Offense

I'd plug my phone in,
but she's in Prague, who would call?
I don't want to talk.

Ex-summers

Sofa, carpet, bed-
bleached and funky and colder
from my wet swimsuit.

It's Never Too Late

Angelic voices
from the busts of perfection.
Never outdated.

Animals

Yelling at their own,
on the grounds of "ignorance,"
ashamed of their form.


Veganarchists

The sole difference?
There's no reason to hate cows,
because they eat grass.


Precedence

Think of what fervor
they would employ to picket
carnivore cafés!

Confide

These young men take "the
shrillest highs and lowest lows"
to "such great [new] heights."

Who's Walking Who?

Is there an instance
where our intentions become
what we think we are?

E-emotion

Things were going well,
and then you got an email
with a big fat :)
