that I can't shake;
it's the big dreams
that I cannot make.
roiling around in my head
like an acid eddy,
meet where these two dances duel.
I fight what makes me happy
when I should just own it;
I like basketball and cookies,
I like taking listening to music too seriously.
they're playing Spoon
in this Cheesecake Factory,
I exit and scream poems at the sun.
