Love and Carnage

1
Where are we now
(Who are we anyway?)
The parts of me that you
love are empty beings

2
Don’t fuck it up
when success
is arbitrarily
handed to you

Take the 5:10
to Dreamland

America is waiting

3
I pass by here every day,
orange sunshine, silent holy stones
making sense of nonsense

4
You are different now.
But not bad different.
Just, you know, not like 1999.

Go die, come back, I’ll love you.
Violet hearts run crimson tides
