2 poems

poem 1
I swim ‘round & emerge an aliEn of latex boots n g string
we all sp!t in our hands and decide to stik it out
plug ourselvs into the stormie ether////

+grate when ur living it up^
n the boys are driving fast, we put on sunglasses
 ((sip tea and spit the remnants into unknown handbags))
busy later, I have plans, they’re apocalyptic

l8r, night time, find myself picking locks and chEwing
plastic bottle caps. we sit down a sec to catch some air n smog
suddenly you’re pouring urself
down drains of rusty metal, I try to stop u
or at least find out Y
but once again I’m left with nothing but a void
                  //// things were better back on earth

to b candid it’s about time you fess up
about the hole you made in the space/time continuum
its not like im incapable of piecing things together, but whatever
at night it’s nice, I guess, to dream and be flung
                  into other heads
                  fr a while i was a baby, then I was time itself

__ tbh it’d be great if u could call me
from the other side of real
but take ur time ive still got heaps
most of this lifetime, and the next___



poem 2 
on the box home I was scrubbing different names
off my innards and complaining
about the weather n shit. Ur a good listener, thanks for hearing all that
                                    nd I hope a cool change comes
                                    to address this fiery rage
cause rn we’re both burning up to tell
                                                                                          everyone to fuk right off
people don’t listen. O well. Tomorrow
lets for fr a swim, ((I’ve got
some ideas about past life revenge))
+and maybe some time soon we’ll book in a chat
+with my mum and get the scoop
+on our crushes and also what is up with the 6th dimension

//we’ll probs look back n laugh about it all//
about       the          insular                    rotating hypocrisy              of              the          internet and        our          reclusive                nature

and all the rocks we look under tryna find some answers
                  it’s a good thing to question and challenge
                  the fabric of reality, it’s a good thing
                  to crush those brittle lies we’re told
                  between ur steak teeth and send that spittle
                  soaring outta our atmosphere cause we’re so done rn.

later ill make some pasta and gurgle up the soda stream
dw i’ve been really on top of the ice cube trays

god knows we need some kinda consistency
