    Unfriending

    Facebook helped her find herself —
    Define her rebellion
    Discover her vegetarianism
    Declare her antidisestablishmentarianism

    This week she’s deep into Kentucky-Fried Chickenism
    Thinks she’s a lesbian
    Considering Unitarianism
    Is not averse to communist utopianism

    She’s a chocolate Easter bunny
    With nothing inside

    Her manufactured authenticity
    Reeks of mendacity
    And I can’t say I still have the capacity
    To like the catastrophe

    To her dead lover

    From living’s safe embrace I have been exiled;
    Your death-charms nightly kill my foolish sleep.
    Sharp texts unravel dull and flimsy textiles —
    Upon my skin your whispers softly creep,
    As by sensation reason is subdued,
    And under woolen layers you undress
    Forgotten instinct suddenly renewed
    With fingers light and nimble in caress.
    But what shall come of this imagination,
    Reflected in your putrifying eyes?
    Your image only feeds such sweet frustration,
    Devouring death and growing self despise.
    Sustained by words immortal, lust survives —
    Translating this body; I am alive.

    (2008)

    Inspired by huge crush on literature professor and obsession with True Blood. :D

    a mouth of vague

    a mouth, vague

    your vague mouth

    your mouth full of vague

    your tongue covered in vague uncertainty

    Is this about me? Cause I want it to be about me

    Vaguely

    Was asked to resurrect this,
    An order it was phrased,
    So dutifully and proudly,
    My words leave you amazed,
    I whip them up like pastries,
    I labour at the screen,
    I’m making 4legs happy,
    I’m keeping this real clean.

    A french gent stole my heart
    So whitty and so smart
    but I miss his chin
    taking it away was a sin

    Like a warm and cheesy pizza,
    That’s the boy I am,
    But can you just remember,
    I’m Italian.

    I swore it said vague potty thread.
    I guess I am still thinking about the poop thread.

    Are you fun or are you fake?...
    That's a decision I've yet to make.
    Tis wise to be wary
    Online is scary
    They aren't all what they seem
    Some like fat cats who've swallowed the cream.
    Others petty and somewhat mean
    While thank goodness so many more are a wonderful dream

    "I hope you don't listen to Shinedown"

    it's 5.03 and I can't sleep
    without you in the threads
    I toss and turn like a sea

    If I drown tonight
    I'll be dead till I
    open a new account
    under a name you'll like

    I must go now
    Time has come
    Creeping slow
    I sing my song

    Hear my voice
    And cry in pain
    You had no choice
    All life is vain

    Is this vague?
    Does it rhyme?
    Yes! Guess!
    Oh whoops, too bad

    I just want to be somewhere
    Obscure and secluded
    I just want to be somewhere
    Where the cheesecake is included

    You stole my captain hugger,
    For me there is no other,
    I'm known as a right hand slugger,
    Anybody else wanna touch my lover?
