ever vaped weed in a basement

the stair bottom entering through a curtain green velvet on the way up taupe canvas sack on down

my life’s a joke i’m broke my love life’s DOA its like I’m always stuck in second gear

it hasn’t been my day my week my month or my year

and no one's here for me when the rain starts to pour.

hash will make you cry in the morning if you stupidly listen to your old CDs. -mariah edith welch

I recall your eyes being very big in a dream I saw you coming at me with spindly long fingers and a crooked nose emerging wet and steamy from a saucer, flying. In the back room you had your hands immersed in the sink water, clouds rising and misting from the warm water. I asked you how to fill a mop bucket and you accidentally touched my hand. I walked through the saloon doors and they flapped loosely behind me. When I returned you were shaking your butt to a rare funky groove. This morning you smelled like mint. You said, "ooh, I wanna kiss you so bad." -mariah edith welch

Starting to believe in abstinence from all things except for maybe weed. "When two people love each other very much..." Yeah, well, what about three people or four people or even a hundred people? Then what? -mariah edith welch

All those times I was sitting at the pottery wheel coning clay and imagining it was a dick, although we had not met yet, I bet I was imagining your dick. -mariah edith welch

Fish kill in sweet valley toking with your sister in a golden car. A woman can run for president in 2015 but can't walk down the street without being harassed. -mariah edith welch

“when is it time to shine?” “the time is now” “how do you know it?”

“i know it because  it’s like, pretty dark outside”

the arrow moving forward. the horns, bone.
