21st Birthday
Healing
after I woke up
in a pool
of applesauce and veggies
Stuck beside a wall
and clouds mad of porcelain
Why is my tooth loose?
Where is my left sock?
And if the ringing in my ear won't stop
silence will hurt.
Icing on the cake
Twisted my leg dancing
Now I walk like a song.
Things I won't remember tomorrow
Flashing lights
Seats filled elbow to elbow
the movie...
The Day I Became Legal to be Illegal.
