you’re a ben kweller blizzard

it’s been lonelier than usual at work
i keep calling long distance
like it’ll make a difference
this time

hi hello again am i
bothering you
your tone changed
somewhere recently

maybe you’re the wrong bank
for this deposit

this is all so counterproductive
like a nailbiting habit
born from hygiene anxiety

backskip & blot lipstick
maybe this part won’t
always feel so fraught

hi hello again i’ve been
screened
i am wasted
but i’m ready

Hi. I'm a poet. I was a playwright/producer before the pandemic. If you're wealthy and want to be a modern Medici, drop me a buck or two: paypal.me/ksnapreads
