“You are delicious I don’t mind letting you know”—Frank O’Hara
“Why choose love / when hate comes first”—Carly Rae Jepsen

Why do cans still come with those plastic rings that kill dolphins & sea turtles & such
I thought we were past that in our post-racial society
Look at u
u stroke the ego
a flash of ankle
touch the id
a flare-up some would consider shocking
helpless shiver of recognition
a modicum of professionalism
savage truths coaxed from your precious mouth
demure as cut fruit
blond peaches bounce like they know the expense
We are modest dreamers (it takes a lot)
U like me better dressed as Wild Turkey
I like u better heartbroken
U taught me how to love at arm’s length
Killmonger in a MAGA hat
I’m sorry I said to meet at Auntie Anne’s
I didn’t know ur parents were killed in a robbery gone wrong
Here
Have a pretzel
