i love you
do you love me? am i worth it? do you like the way that i whine/wine, you swine!? do you like how i throw pennies into puddles just so that you can pick them up? i want you to dive into the puddle and pick them up with your nose.
you like to squeeze me like the charmin like how the commercial tells you that you can. sometimes you squeeze me so that i can't sleep, or that there is a sliver of bed for me to rest thsi weary head.
the books in the apartment are overlapping us, i am not sure that they all mesh. i want to re-arrange them by color, i hate the alphabet. i hate orderly order. in order.
i love red wine that's dry like my tongue. i hate when the fruit drips out of the corners of my mouth, and you pluck a berry like it's the last.
i remember picking up cherries from the dirty sidewalk. i loved eating them just so that i could spit out the bits o' pits.
