i don’t go grocery shopping enough
and i go every week
sneezin' mangoes all over my arms
i lose my socks in the sheets
i could never stand up in the deep end
i’m okay at making friends
except at shows
i’ll never be able to stand up in the deep end
but i’m on land 98% of the time
in the ocean, nobody can touch the deep end
not even scientists

my arms ached all night
before i go i brush my teeth
find some socks
put away the tea
before i go i need to empty my suitcase

if i’m an astrounaut
you’re my space ship
and pleasantville is the moon
the diner guy thought i was mysterious
when i picked up two greek salads
no tomatoes
it wasn’t for you
you like tomatoes
it was for my sister
i miss her
neither of us miss tomatoes
in our greek salads

i’ll make it work
even when you’re a jerk
i’ll make it work
even when i'm at work
i’ll even try
when you make me cry
but i’m not gonna
i'm not gonna let them tell me
how to cuff my jeans
i'm not gonna let some men in dc
inform me what part of my body belongs to me
i'm not gonna let some bitter old man order my drawings to look a certain way
and i sure as hell won't let him convince me
that kindness isn't palpable
an opalescent guitar pick
on my bedside table

blue tape on my eyebrows
looking like milhouse
every color comes from r y b
but i don’t know where that leaves me
sweep the floors then i am gone
off to listen to my new friends' song

we could live in union square
buying socks and underwear
one day 2015 will have been 20 years ago
and i’m scared for that so
i hope you’ll be by my side
thinking about the show we met at
thinking about our crossed paths
we’re not famous and we don’t have fake names
i don’t think i want one anyway
i love flowers and house shows
i have 14 tulips and don’t go to house shows
your mother is a florist
my father is a landscaper
and we still go to shows

marbling New York, New York
driving in the tri-state at night when the traffic finally lightens up after the worst rush hour you can remember. on your
left are 18 wheelers and on your right are pickup trucks and a dog is sticking its head out the window.
