TwirledA Poem by The Flawed
Lately:
I’ve stopped killing time, I torture it instead,
I pay my bills twice, just in case,
I’ve been walking on the wrong side of the opposite pavement,
I’ve been climbing trees all the way up to their roots
I’ve been wearing my jeans and t-shirts over my suits,
I asked my mother if she was a virgin,
I’ve been taking sleeping pills for a boost,
I’ve learned a new language that no one else speaks (I taught myself)
I went to a clairvoyant to tell me about my present
I’ve been doing star jumps in my sleep
I buy take out sushi and cook it
I’ve been dreaming in Chinese with subtitles.
And lately:
Lately, I’ve been missing her,
No, not really, that would be crazy,
Wouldn’t it?
