I can do purple. I have a lavender tongue
when I'm eating plums,
or red seedless grapes
that aren't even red, or on the spectral coordinates
for red.
so what gives?
sorry, I'm off the subject at hand
and it's always because I'm biting the end of a pen
tasting expired ink.
I think
you're standing a little too far to the left,
maybe shuffle to the right
just a tad
so we can start a fad
with that nerdy jacket and call it
CLOTHES
geeks are the best. I'd like to rest
with one, in the janitors closet. just sleep.
freak people out
when they open the door and scream
'They're not even making out! '
there's a spiffy guitar playing
on pandora. it sizzles and stirs
my blood like a non prescription drug.
I'm so over the counter right now.
my basement comes fully stocked with darkness.
it's what sold me in the beginning- that,
and my parents pretty much kicked me off the top
layer of the earth,
so I like to think of it as
being blanketed by all of you.
Speaking of mechanical bulls,
do you ever have a dull moment in life
where you just want to stand up
and yell 'CHEESEBURGERS! '
so someone will get you one?
I just did that,
and there's a 9 piece box
of chicken nuggets sitting by my desk.
Someone is going to pay hell today.
