(you smell of)

new converse, christmas lights strung up til march, arcade pizza glistening with grease, red hair dye, burnt-off fog, rain, i think, or the dew on grass, dark lip stain, tracks in fresh snow, heavy vanilla, old lemon peel, pink ribbons forgotten on the floor, that acid dry-erase tang, notebook paper (college ruled), woodfire smoke, nostalgia, caramel, the bottoms of antique drawers, 0.7 graphite shattered on the page, sriracha sauce, the glitter you wipe from your eyes, three a.m. washed-out dawnings, 

fogged up & thumbprinted 

over & over again
