eavesdropping


 
no audio jack
everybody bubbles

my body an office
and i'm sitting by the elevator

arguing over the phone is a 
different sort of trapped

mama I can't tell
if that the coffee or the
henny talking?

either way i subject myself to this
everybody grown 

i'm not going to make myself 
bear witness

to your destruction i subject myself
to some discipline, for once

i want to revisit
the temples,

everybody beating 
they own drum

my body an orifice, 
a muscle

tempering the edge 
in my voice

melted gold might be
liquid but they can't drink that
can they?

versatility is a skill and 
i feel like i hear everything

i ain't texting i don't know
i feel like words were meant to come n go
