Indefinite hiatus

I know I haven't posted here in a long time, but I'm officially going on hiatus until Tumblr goes back to the old reblog system.

I do not currently have another home for my poetry; if I do make an account for it somewhere, I'll post an update.

i hate it when i cant even write a poem about something because its too obvious. like in the airbnb i was at i guess it used to be a kids room cause you could see the imprint of one little glow in the dark star that had been missed and painted over in landlord white. like that's a poem already what's the point

[canthaveshitingotham-crucified]

you get it. you get the themes. i dont have time to do it justice. just look at it its on the ceiling
