  • In the morning

    When I open my window in the morning,

    it's the same thing every day.

    There's almost never anything new.

     

    And it's kind of boring.

     

    And it's not boring in a good way.

  • Pyrite

    *lines in italics are from Jane Eyre

     

    Are you apprehensive of the new sphere you are about to enter?

    Because I fear

    For the warm skin

  • Longing

    It always seems that 
    In the unruly depths of each Alabama winter 
    I long for summer 
    For campfires and S'mores 
    And laughing louder than the cicadas 

  • thinking in three dots

    broke out a pen, not a pencil

    i usually use pencils for english homework,

    mechanical ones,

    teal or purple.

    but i guess it's different

    with forgotten homework,

    either rushed or

    completed by chatgpt

  • unkept (wo)man

    subjugated to solitude eternal,

    only perceiving and watching love,

    maybe receiving it but never understanding it

    never internalizing it

    it bounces off. Doesn't stick,

    unkept and unruly and unclean.
