"ANYBODY WHO HAS A CRUSH ON ME
IS FUCKED"


somehow there is a palm tree in the yard,
it surprised me since the yard is so small

i go to the bathroom to find what hurts
i touch all over and still cant find the wound

the neighbor keeps some dogs who always know
when a storm is coming, and they set to wailing

which means its time for me to go on a walk;
i dont have to listen to the dogs but i get wet

these dogs in the coop, i cant even see them
and still they put me out in the rain

i am sheltered under the highway,
where there is a mural and a seat

the furious rain of sub-tropic places
the grit swirling around on the road

i cant remember, but i know it is there
i've done all in my power to heal it
the cut must be real small
