POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Most of these poems were written in/post-high school, so naturally if I tried to edit them today, 90% would end up deleted. So I'm just going to leave them here. Also I still post sometimes, so hello. ♥️

yellow
Bright and red
The sparrows sing
Ugly fucking screeching
My blood is congealled caffeine
Coffee seeps from under my nails
And all the paper
I touch is sticky
The sparrows sing
Ugly fucking screeching
My blood is congealled caffeine
Coffee seeps from under my nails
And all the paper
I touch is sticky

"But Only Because You're Daddy's Favorite"
I'm fucking disgusting
I got your spit-soaked sin
on my fingers
and I'm rusting
I want you to gag me
Daisy-fresh slips
with a Freudian fringe
I want you to
sink your teeth in
I got your spit-soaked sin
on my fingers
and I'm rusting
I want you to gag me
Daisy-fresh slips
with a Freudian fringe
I want you to
sink your teeth in

Wendy, Wendy, How Silly
Don't feel a thing.
Don't love you.
Don't love you.

the perks of being a temporary fix.
This is you:
A poem that breathes
Of all the memories
I have let myself keep
Here is one.
We lie in my bed and
your arm is behind my neck
Wrapping around my back
And I feel the ridge of your
collarbone under my fingertips
I touch too softly
But I am terrified to let myself
Touch at all.
This is you:
I have spent months trying to describe
The exact texture of your eyes
And I have given up
There is a universe there
Chaotic storms unravelling
They are
Glinting grey
A smoking blue smudging ...

What I Can't Say to You
I am not the girl
You will write poems about
But I need you to understand
That you have infinitely
And existentially
Affected me
And every piece of paper
I ever touch again
You will write poems about
But I need you to understand
That you have infinitely
And existentially
Affected me
And every piece of paper

Dust Box
bones like matches
and I will
let flames lick
I will shiver
to cinders
with your tongue
inside me
and I will
let flames lick
I will shiver
to cinders

Neverland.
i move slowly
twisting between
my palms
a dead bug
a dead bug
coiling with one wing
not enough to fly
but just enough to hope
enough to die hoping
it took me an hour to
get out of bed this morning
half a cup of coffee
and I didn't brush
my hair
i still call it a victory
in the way I felt
your fingers coax me
back to sleep
empty pillows that
smell like you now
i should have understood
long before
that this isn't something
you need
my shoulderblades
are...

Captain Hook Ate My Alligator's Necklace
flowers bloom from my neck
stinging stale
yellow like your nicotine kiss

Fifty Shades of Dolores Haze
I want my leather
corded tight inside
your mouth
give me that
Dahlia lip, darling
smile for me
with your splintering teeth
I want my leather
aching pink
around and around
your wrists
be good and be still
for me
I want my leather
pressed ruthless
between your hips
calling
move when I do
move when I let you
I want my leather
strung from the ceiling
suspend you like the
dead thing you are
oh, sorry
suspend you like the
dead thing you want to be...
corded tight inside
your mouth
give me that
Dahlia lip, darling
smile for me
with your splintering teeth
I want my leather
aching pink
around and around
your wrists
be good and be still
for me
I want my leather
pressed ruthless
between your hips
calling
move when I do
move when I let you
I want my leather

Soldiers
Enemy lines beckon
to join the winning side
and it doesn't look so bad.
Because I'm tired,
and my weary bones
creak and shutter
under the weight of
a warzone.
And I am inclined to listen.
They say,
maybe I should forget.
to join the winning side
and it doesn't look so bad.
Because I'm tired,
and my weary bones
creak and shutter
under the weight of
a warzone.
And I am inclined to listen.
They say,

My Apologies to the Jury
our sweet sin
is filthy
and the steady heat
inside your bones says so
your tight grip
around my throat insists
we are an incandescent bruise
a persistent throb of blood
helpless lust
is filthy
and the steady heat
inside your bones says so
your tight grip
around my throat insists
we are an incandescent bruise
a persistent throb of blood
helpless lust

I am a ghost
hosting a b o d y
A soul
while flesh is
rotting
Oxidizing slowly
Eternal
but I will perish
Like you.
