there is a pipe dripping in my bedroom. tell me, is this significant
I think it has something to do with the development of mold
(I think you would understand)
once I thought I had a type, as though I had a favorite fruit
I want to bite the fruit but I’m not sure it’s my type
once I babysat an infant and his mother offered me boxed wine
it seemed like a trap at the time but I think she was young
she bit the fruit and it grew inside her, moldy she told me
she was into army guys I didn’t tell her
they always leave because where is the father now
once I dreamt that all of the teeth in my head crumbled into my mouth
rotting out of their roots, the boulders realized their gravity
only for a moment but it was enough. today
I thought I saw you out of the corner of my eye and
have you ever stroked the outer shell of another person’s ear?
