I’ve swept the floor.
I’ve shaven
All the wood and leaves off the bed
Brackish semen fills the sky
And dazed bees browse my drooping
Curls
Look asshole. I know exactly who you are
I know what you’re trying to do to me

The Song of One Hundred Thousand Chemicals Approximating Sunshine
‘This is the Song of One Hundred Thousand’ by Ariana Reines
This is the song of one hundred
Thousand chemicals approximating
Sunshine in my hair. My lover bit

Fall from one trance into the next
Might fall asleep any minute
It gets tiring making yourself look
like you’re alive while you’re looking
Hard practicing turning
Away from the shit we’re in
