you’ll do great in l.a.

the streets are all violent
with murderous excitement
the hunter and the prey
are dancing everyday
that waltzing jibberish
where intake becomes outlandish
i’m in a bad way every passing day

“so where do do we go from here” i’ll say
you’re a shining star,
you’ll do great in l.a.
and i keep fixing every habit that i break

oh megan, is this thing of ours still on?
for i haven’t slept a wink
since you have been gone
now i want to be buried in your backyard
and when the flowers grow,
just know you’re still in my heart.

a flash of dark interest
steers us into this car crash
uniting our remains, a fiery hurray…
our hands touch unnoticed
pressed up against melting glass
you’re calling out my name
as the air escapes.

—i want to be buried in your backyard
nightmare of you

or, take what’s behind door number three…


excerpts from my last two dates:

where are we?
being 21 feels weird
who’s your favorite x-man?
i can’t remember where my car is
so… what do you do for a living?
nobody in the marines knows i’m gay
can i check my myspace?
you had a really nice time, didn’t you?
call me tomorrow
i don’t like boys
i’m always mean to boys
sex is weird
i always treat guys poorly
why are you so nice to me?
i’m not really dating right now
can i check my myspace?
i had a really nice time
i’ll call you tomorrow
