see me like my neighbour does

2026-05-22

i wanna believe in me the same way my neighbour who's known me since a kid does i wanna see me normal like she does none of this bleeding bullshit art bullshit nothing romantic nothing fragmented i'm no longer riding the rhymes ironically i can't help it i was gifted this way of life bleeding every way imaginable my blood paints the most marvelous paint thickness makes william blake faint i can't say i wanna see me like my parents does they've seen a lot, my neighbour hasn't this talent, the arrogance elegant way with words that's my inheritance? some sick twisted experiments i am the evidence just take a look at my intelligence

how do you want to read?

poems can unravel themselves as you read, line by line, at a considered pace — or just sit there, fully visible, like normal.

change this anytime — look for “reading: …” near the top of any poem.
