TOWN pizza

Everyone is so busy

like a tape measurer

snapped back

I’m coming out from

a photo booth

tightening my ponytail

like tearing it

apart like banana peel

room temperature

furniture, bigger

than it needs to be

green eyes behind the scenes

late night drinking

feels like

enlightenment

never sounded funny enough

I’d rather read

I’m not ready

pull my book out
obviously from
an open purse
that's melting on
the counter
like cheese
