Ah,
you’re just a copy
of all the candy bars
I’ve ever eaten.

(for proselytizing my friend brianna)
it’s okay to be contradictory / it means
your learning or forgetting is mutual /
with the world’s
Poetry is willing /
the world to speak / with softer tongues
at right / angles
to the vernacular /
is being / a shadow’s shade
and a prism’s prison.
