Everyone Poops
I am playing with my dollies
And my princess pram all pink
I'm nearly 5
A big girl now
No more nappies
Or plastic pants
I think
I outgrew the potty
When I was only three
My mum says it's because I am brave
Now...

to overcome my youthful woes and nightmarish troubles solve.

Dead Crush
"Dead Crush"
Oh uplift me woman
if we were to have a
conversation would
bees fly out of your mouth
or just mewling, simpering

When Nature's Best Is Not At All That Good
The ecosystem’s perfect design
A providence of the Great Divine.
A holistic balance that should not fail
If well-taken-cared of by those that dwell.
The atmosphere was just enough
To sustain the living and its habitat.
Green vegetations were all around
And...

I'm just trying to Survive
I'm really, REALLY tired.
I'm grasping at straws.
I've lost myself.
I'm alone so often,
I've got nowhere I can go.
I try to talk to people but I know I'm just bumming them out.
I didn't...

Sleepless In Whereis Part 1
I’m stealing through a twilit realm, the ancient pale of Whereis,
passing chambers of an Heiress
(though no need to feel embarrassed)
through a magic mystic mirror hanging curtainless.
A glimpse near naked alleyways (denuded by the moon) ex-
