So I saw this
young couple making the same cute face
in a photo
and I think it ruined my day
Them being adorable like
five thousand puppies in Spring
and all

And I’m not being bitter
I don’t mind cuteness. I don’t mind affection.
I enjoy Love Actually for Christ’s sake
It made me cry once

I just wish happy people lived further away
on an island somewhere
where they can dance and write sonnets
and pronounce their boundless love
while drinking wine and actually savoring it
and actually enjoying it
and not pouring it down their throats
until they fall asleep on a carpet somewhere

Let them go live on an island somewhere
Some of us are trying to listen to a lightbulb
hum

oh precipitation i’d rather

                                                be  the

                                                              ground(becausestandinginyoustainsmesoaked.

                                            keepsake ponds & barely lakes – terra firma & her clay

take from dropped rain kindly; committed to your cry.

through me you i’d rather-

condensate with my blood & time.
