something real flawed.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,

open the blinds!!
the clock reads time lost asking the wrong questions
when the answers have made a habit
of residing underneath our tongues..

on a train, where i do not know the destination
ive grown comfortable asking
the meaning of life to strangers and they
tell me to stay awake through the whole ride
but sometimes my eyes get heavy
and i think of my mistakes
i must learn to distract myself with focus on the future
the theme for my now has been constructed with failed yesterdays
that sound so beautiful over a piano i copped today. (YES)

i will learn to dance with my eyes open
i will speak to strangers on the subway
i will answer phone calls from blocked numbers
i will learn that i have so much to learn.

and
her name was freedom and i think she was ethiopian
said no one had colonized her thoughts or her style and i wasnt gonna
be the first,
muthafucka.
she walked on her toes and i thought she wd fall in my arms
but clearly she's had practice in staying afloat.
is it fair to say that i was amazed.


..
(ok i have to go to bed. i really dont know what to write anymore. i just drew the blank of life..ughhhhhhhhhhhhh)
