sometimes I think I am willing all bad fate. do you choose the right fortune cookie
or the left fortune cookie; I choose neither fortune cookie and suck your dick. I
wear hentai eyes, make the moons slim and purple, beat it up. the second best
person you have ever known expresses on facebook a deep-seated violence
towards you, your family, your clothes—and all this through an hd screenshot of
rihanna. you want to move back towards something slighter and know you can’t.
you want to become someone you saw once—blue lipstick, white peruvian shoes—
and feel at fault. I hate to watch the way this vhs player addresses me. I hate to
watch neat skips of you loving me simply because I was glib.
