i feel abrasive.
a small sunny wreckage. pooh if pooh wore leather and fenty eyeliner too heavy and desperately needed a haircut. crowded by softness, and i bet my hands are too rough to hold it. why is it always dark out? missing the sunlight. wired but restrained and unmoored. like hot water, soft and light, but a bit of a scald. i wish i'd both hush and open. my hair is too long. makes my face soften out. i've finished a lot of poems lately, and i've needed a lot of poems lately. i have a craving for tender poems, some words that could teach me to both soften and straighten my shoulders back to face whatever darkness seems to hover. here's what's keeping me tender lately.
from Waves by Virginia Woolf
