I’m not sure how this all goes dow… I’m not sure how it works The only thing I know for sure We love each other’s quirks The things we thought would drive…

The world that I was born into Is not the world I want I work to try to get back to A one that values plants

We were having the time of our liv… Two friends seeking joy We bonded over the basest things Doughnuts, kerosene, and Playboys

Let me make Home for you That rivals Kathmandu Hugs, kisses

My baby’s got Curly red hair Shimmering eyes Freckles to spare Likes to play games

Most poems perused Would probably be better Made into haikus

The waves, curls, cowlicks; Your idiosyncrasies Make me love you more.

I saw you standing there so fine In dress real nice with man that’s… I wish I could just say to you I’d love you more than he could do

I don’t write poems for poets Flowery language, indulge us I break it down With a simpler sound And anything more would be less

I’ll make you pucker And turn your stomach So take me with a grain of salt

I need to get him out So he feels the treat Of an empty bladder Grass beneath his feet

I have a grip that’s never loose That’s why I always get my goose I dig my claws into your soul Until I’m your silver and gold

I don’t know what, quite, will unf… I only see silver and gold That’s all I need to tightly hold Onto this dream of getting old

Because you exist Is the best reason For you to persist

I wanna kiss your scars I wanna smell your stank I wanna taste your tears I wanna lick your taint I wanna hold you close
