Flower print pants (Never worn) - Depop​

   after Kim Deal​

​

Remember Barbageddon?

That day off you accidentally

took - how the hang the next night

got bleak where the purple streets

go crooked by the Fright Factory -

 

your story kept open

like a locket with pictures

of your friends - your cat -

a few words to remember -

 

It even sings to you -

of the wonder

of all salvation -

of a Sunday afternoon -

but everyone's born 

under one moon or another

 

Where is home

in your hot pink future?

You verb around this wilderness -

with nightlights hooked 

like a thicket in your pupils - 

collecting EXP., and waiting on 

 

the she -

the whispered -

the blue iguana -

most sensitive

to metaphor -

 

You meanderer

you tease

you flop

you fowl

 

Throngs thud the atmosphere -

a head cold - a green ocean 

breaking on an autumn beach

like breaths at the ends of lines

and your memories hold you 

in the daylight?
