pins and needles and me
and a shovel and a buried car and dry skin
and i am shivering
one dig leads to another
one twitch leads to another
and i am shivering
numb
numb
or i am shivering
i endeavor to hug
more warmly than a parka doing parkour
i endeavor to write better than the above metaphor
tingling
a lack of feeling
i never learn
tingling
a lack of feeling
and i never learn
i try to burn through you

i endeavor to hug

i endeavor to write better than the above metaphor
i do what i can
i do what i can
it's not enough
i endeavor
i endeavor
i endeavor
i endeavor
endeavor
endeavor
all-internal squirms
closed eyes tucked shirts
oh, how i'm shivering
i endeavor but i do what i can
last night i watched the film grizzly man
i'm still a little off-balance
tingling
a lack of feeling
i never learn
tingling
a lack of feeling
and i never learn
i try to burn through you
i try to burn through you
i try to burn through you
i try to burn through you
powder
and milk and whiskey and cream
mixing
less than perfectly
fighting through pins and needles and me

yes, i am a passive-aggressive cleaning agent
yes, cleaning my room is totally about you
i don't need to apologize for trying
to feel better
so: you're blasting netflix
so i can't do work!
gilmore girls so loud
it kind of hurts!
weird-ass subterfuge
and i just live with you
i don't need to apologize for trying
to feel better
i don't need to apologize for trying
to be better
you're pushing my buttons
then taking cover
cooking my pasta
it's boiling over
if i am strange
please leave and complain
i'll turn up my jambox
can't hear what you're saying
there's that awful song on the radio
about being really rude
i wouldn't marry you
but it otherwise fits
if i am strange
please leave and complain
i'll turn up my jambox
can't hear what you're saying
dog, i really know
we're all wasting space
lease up in august
i can't wait
i don't need to apologize to you or anyone for trying
to feel better

sleepover 1997
a lineup of disney VHSs and sleeping bags
and kids
we watch aladdin and the lion king
go over to space jam
and then some episodes of animaniacs
my brother taped off the WB
i complement your pjs
they're really something
official nintendo
official nintendo
i can't compete with that
you have cooler pajama pants
sleepover 1836
it begins at sundown
with like four other kids
we tell stories we make up
mine has ghosts
yours has girls
they're equally scary
mom says jesus is watching
I think he must be bored
all I ever do is sit around
and wait and work and sleep and eat every week
i see
high quality sheepskin on you
maybe lamb
i'll never be able to compete with that
you have cooler pajama pants
mine are just cotton
and they really fit me
that means they're dumb and common and scared and weak
i say that in the back of the bible there are some pretty messed-up parts
the boys say they don't believe
i figure most adults never get to the back
or they'd think more about things
official nintendo
official nintendo
i can't compete with that
you have cooler pajama pants
and when we watch the lion king
i know the part where the father dies is coming
i look away but it always gets to me

in eighth grade
a gender and heteronormative career survey
told me i could be a bricklayer
not an english major
i was perturbed
i was aware of a sense of being put into place
i went to guidance for guidance
they gave me another copy of that survey
like it would change
my sociopolitical state
or how i felt
*bottles and wood*
everybody
wants to be an astronaut
nobody
wants to be stranded in space
i am going to be
an astronaut
but i don't think i can handle a spacewalk
and
all bodies
deserve
to
pick their own pronouns

feeling like a fever
they just want you gone they just want you gone
a watch don't make it clearer
time drags like stone better push the stone
asking where you are from
i guess i don't know i guess i don't know
damaged goods broken lungs
i guess i don't know how should i know
walk the perimeter
heel to toe heel to toe
old kids in embedded friendgroups
walk it off and think
secret languages
how should i know how could i know
how does anyone
walk the perimeter
heel to toe heel to toe
new kids like curdling milkshakes
walk it off and think and think and think
recess like trench warfare
and they're sitting in the chair of the gun

ooh
laser removal armband tattoo
tribal artifact
buried in a mound
ink like gold
mining skulls and crosses and
cursive names
oh
ping pong permanent
arms and firmaments
ooh
okay
feeling like you've made indelible mistakes
is basically just monday
call 'em blue mondays pay new order
i wear teal: a sweatshirt, no pattern
sit outside the chemistry hallway
rather be here than home
form a right angle spine to a locker, horizontal scar a notebook
with god knows what okay okay okay okay
tell me if you'd like to
i could miss you
if you want
when you're gone
and if any place accepts me
you could miss me
if you want
when i'm gone
not
trying
to tell you anything

they're always different
but they keep their beards obedient
like a model repping flannel in an advertisement in out magazine
see 'em all the time
walking long routes to work and school
when your roommates ask you where you've been
you say 'window shopping'
boys pale in comparison
to their wardrobes of eclectic sweaters
you return 'em for store credit
anna grills you like
you're not really a real feminist
she says it's never different
you tell her "mind yr own shit"
you eat an oreo
and say:
it's not
my fault
it's not all my fault

awake a few
minutes a few hours
parade eschewed
stripped like superpowers
who's late, it's you
but i push
shhhh
you stick to me
hooray, a few
moments of connection
you said you need a hug
it felt a bit like a confession
i try not to fail you
i push
you stick to me
for now

you

i felt like glue when solid
kinda ugly kinda polished
and then when i saw you
you were wearing a better shirt
it was made of all colors

a journeyman
nomad
d-league and turkey
iowa then idaho
10-day contracts
bounce around the league like a lottery ball
new jerseys
go to detroit
go go go
we're taking over
we're undefeated
we're taking over
play 15 minutes a game
run in transition
take shots you can actually hit
we're taking over
we're undefeated
we're taking over
we're taking over
and if we're defeated
we're taking over
still
if your left hand causes you to sin cut it off
if you are left handed, ask a friend to help
it's your era now
form a fucking wall

mallory b
is in the top three
mallorys
in period e
they meet twice a week
and mallory g
is in the top three
mallorys
but she
gets the sense
she's slipping
i swore to myself
i wouldn't be lonely
i swore to myself
i wouldn't be slowly regressing
i swore to myself
i wouldn't depend on maura or ashley
they say i'm hot
i know i'm slutty
mallory a
is a total babe
and she hates the way
that's the only way
at least attention is really hard to fake
veiny eyes scratch like rakes
i swore to myself
i wouldn't be lonely
i swore to myself
i wouldn't be slowly regressing
i'm a
mallory fallacy

you hear them kicking
you see them shirtless
they lack the adequate space
to play soccer
or football
or whatever anyone calls it
you hear them kicking
their fashion shoes
this afternoon
does anyone have a job this summer
not really
2014
an athletic inathlete heads a ball into a stationary bush
you take a walk
in bars and in restaurants
you cannot escape the world cup
and in the courtyard of your sublet
you hear them kicking
kick
kicking
you hear them kicking
you see them shirtless
they lack the adequate space to play soccer
and yet

I get closer but I can't focus better on you
