it hasn’t been my day for a couple years

a partial list of sins &
character defects: i
have this thing for blasphemy
i love the smell of money
highly susceptible to boredom
and leather
and coercion
and shoplifting

i like hurting people
but i hate it when they cry
take it like a man, man
blood tastes better than tears

i have a gnawing hungry fetish
for unattainability
at any given moment
i’m in love with two (2) people
that i can’t have

i like control
i want control
when i get control
i want to give up control
and be controlled

like a shining substance
in a lustful glass vial
to be consumed

i hate
that manic pixie airhead bimbo shit
right up until i’m Wanted
& then i’m painting my eyelashes
to improve my batting average

i think i’m smarter than i am
i think i’m stupid

my heart is an anvil
i want to forge you into steel
and you are made of glass
and in a way i’m not sorry at all

when i die
make sure my tombstone reads:
devoted friend
shameless flirt

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
