a part-time lover & a full-time friend.



dirt under my nails & weariness in my eyes, i dug.
i dug up old poetry that i wrote more than a year ago.

& i imagine that we are soaked clothes on
tingling bodies, pressed together like wildflowers in a scrapbook. &
raindrops taste sweet in your presence & we are barefoot, swaying
in a puddle under a street lamp. the cacophony of whizzing cars,
it means nothing to us.

& i imagine that we are starving artists,
fingerpainting tranquil colors on canvas-skin, lucid & divine
in unnatural light. etching metaphors, too, in the margins of your back. it is
abstract for the common masses, incoherent to the untrained eye.
surrealist love, we say.


words don't come easy now.
i wonder if i imagined emotion & placed my trust in shaky adjectives far too early. far before i could spell out my youth with more than just the "y", the "o" & the "u".


we're both pretty cute for two ugly people.
ellen page & michael cera please have a communal marriage with me & do what must be done already. fo shiz.

  5. Hey Nikki, why don't you comment on the blog?

    Like say hello Dylan, thanks for the cool support of something like that.

    Are you real?

    or just a metaphysical digital delusion synthesised deep in the corridors and alleys ways of an epistemological enigma living in a basement somewhere in Transalvania or Tasmania.

    Anyway you are too beautiful to be real, thus my suspicions must be true.

    PS. I may be going into the garlic business; could this be a problem?

  8. Great poetry, especially if you were only 17. Looking at your YouTube channel I can just tell: The world is yours.
