things
could happen
to make the story better
and i
could also
wear sweaters in winter
to prevent
a cold

or.

i could
look like a badass
pretending the ice
doesn’t really
sting
my skin

shitcakes for breakfast
JCD Kerwin

just think:
the more i take
all the hate
and crush it down inside;
the more i let the shit
drip to my chin;
let smiles and grins
cover me in waves,
the more it adds
to the day
i will bubble,
blister, fester,
until finally i’ll
explode and splatter.
