sundried mania orange carbonated hair bearing the weight of knit caps and pajama tops hopping on your skull like battery-powered pogosticks for as long as ive been rubbing these sticks together the fire has a long time coming im tired and slumped over a swivel chair with three wheels and a cry as loud as the burial of a mother's first born son socks lay scattered across my desk in the absence of my "projects and to do's" with the lingering odor of last night's dinner and overwhelming regret tickling my nostrils colorful casio watches stop-watching away while i waste away precious seconds counting the time i spent wearing myself down to the curves of my buttons who knew velcro to be so practical time to find me some new hooks and latches collect the batches so we can punch out and go homeBirth sign: Pisces
