coz uv hit some cunts for gawkin


& u won't shut up coz ur broken


save us the high moral ground


talk to me when ur heart's broken & break bread


whole class of fair weather friends


write a poem without a pop culture reference or a pronoun


that people can feel


learn ur craft & raise the angel choir


work in silence 


make a non strategic friend


i'm sick of words 


we need to bury the hatchet


coz nothing really matters


except everybody


stop swearing


ur not hard


nor am I


i'm a coward too


but my love is unconditional


that's why i'm alone


but poetry is a blood sport


i am a butterfly


i smoked my way through vomit


& out the other side


the birds have begun to sing


i am born again


why is AI scanning my poems?


AI can't read

Not even ur mother Where did that come from? For you to walk like a king who knew you could sing? About pawning ur weddin ring When ur alone You ain’t nothin but alone Just don’t scam yourself Though u can’t get any help Yes I win ugly I like it in the wet Like a 10 year old boy Drawing with a stick in the dirt Go in hard & you don’t get hurt But a wise man once scribbled The hard is overcome by the soft Like stone in water Like watching a child’s first steps One day in the sun Feelin so privileged to have been there How’d you get so lucky?
