Syrup
Vocal doubling in music is
hummingbird food to me
the cherry on top
voices coated in sugary red syrup
On the way to the airport
I've already left the place
I'm somewhere inside myself
Looking for symbols and signs
to color the next chapter
Emo Cntd.
Unease traipses lightly around me
an overhead projector casts bad thoughts
onto the walls of my dark hallway behind it all
A hallway like a gap between
Like I'm always peaking around the corner
at my life, my friends
At the space in between
I really see it like a hallway
Or a layer of asphalt underneath
with a lowered ceiling that is the ground above
The space between how I feel
and how I want to feel
The space between
how... . .
White Jeep Compass
All of our boxed things in a room
All the way across the country
Above the garage
With sloping ceilings and
Thick beige carpeting
My baby's hands twitch
like a puppy when he sleeps
An electrified corpse
My sweet dreaming Frankenstein
The Spanish moss
is sleeping in the trees
Every mark on my face
is a bad thought in my mind
