(2014)
Itus and Itis Crashed my party I didn’t invite them! I whisper to my sister They make my skin crawl
Are you ever tired Of just being you? Did you ever Want to be Someone new?
I wallow in my sadness As it pools up It has not swallowed me Who floats above its surface This surface
Traffic Irritation becomes a nightmare As the lines start to squiggle Bending in and out And the world starts its attack
If you find someone That can do it Better than you Get them on your team
Mis manchas de Bambi Manchas blancas Cubren mi cuerpo La gente se queda mirando Pero no les da asco
Why can’t I choose to be somewhere in the middle? Surrounded by extremes Measure everything With a grain of salt
Yo te amo Tres palabras Que solucionen todo Para la mujer Tan complicada
I can feel it coming Decisions I can’t make Brain starts to freeze Fingers won’t work Sick of this disease
I love to hear poetry read Rather than performed I love to hear each word Appreciated Rather than memorized
Nothing makes people flee Like reading them poetry They value it in theory But please don’t make them read Surprise me with your verse
Have you ever felt A hole inside of you Something dead inside Where your heart Is supposed to be?
You must commit To an outfit Where are you going? In sporty yoga pants Athletic top
A conversation With a true friend Leaves your life richer Maybe with a laugh A smile on your face
A joke Lost in Translation You will Never
