eating fajitas by yourself
is no fun.
the sizzle needs to be heard
amongst a herd of humans
who have chosen to eat a place
like an airport Chili's as a sad last resort.
falling in love with a beautiful musician
that lives in the UK is no fun.
ya never hear a poor person say
we are in the Matrix
while they are shitting;
it's always a well-off wonderboy
saying it at brunch.
I am tired.
Anxiety is exhausting.
I am 40,
but if you adjust for COVID
I am only 37.
Every single one of my worries
can be boiled down
to financial.
sometimes, I turn
two poems into one,
just because I am lazy
and lethargic,
and it's all relative anyways.
sometimes I want to scream
when I should be quiet.
sometimes I am quiet
when I should scream.
sometimes I am sorry
when I shouldn't be.
