movie theaters are like police,

there for society's well-being,

my life was split in two.

you got what was left,

but i wasn't all right.

8.11.2010

during my campaign speech

i pictured the audience naked.

i won the erection.

8.10.2010

i live my life

like an episode of scooby doo,

i don't trust old people.

8.09.2010

sometimes when i look up,

i forget everything that never mattered.

the clouds are in my head

8.08.2010

little glimmers sparkling triumphant

in her smiling eyes watching me
