your every move
a lover out of
favor who
texts & recites
your cart
contents from
an aisle over
& reminds you
how good it is
to feel wanted

so damn hot
for early June
so let’s get
away from
concrete &
steel because
there’s only so
much humanity
I can stand
in summer
& the trains &
trams & buses
are filled with
the great unwashed
& that is not to shame
anyone but only
to say work
should not rule
our lives but be
subservient to
our mental space
which is probably
too didactic for
a poem like this
but screw it &
if that pisses you
off write your
own damn poem

hot coffee on
my keyboard
is just so damn

whenever a hallmark
movie comes on
brace yourself
for schlock
& tears
because damn
those movies
get to me

the best cure
for a hangover
is to just tell
your liver to
buckle up

oh hey june
didn’t notice
you snuck in
the back way
& so nice of
you to bring
a six pack

silence nurses evil on
memories of grandeur
