Schemer 1


think of borrowing
honestly

it's not my house

the shiny toys
the soft cat
the hot night

have I lost something?

trouble
my friends
right here

cameras in the corners
capture naughty
broken glass and
just bad
behavior

the summer becomes
a bloody sheet
a four-corned
problem

removal
a bullfight
a somersault

the blood as
a sort of
downtown

a personalized
reparation
a shell

the clock
like soft
raindrops
all night
another time

if you're not helping
I don't care
about you

have I
lost something

the smoke alarm
the pink bench
are warm to me

so often

use pleasure
to sedate

I'm sweaty
in a fantasy

speechless
and bigger
