My trauma wears Crocs
My Trauma Wears Crocs My trauma wears Crocs— bright yellow, with stickers peeling off. It doesn’t care how serious you want life to look.

Love Wears a Funeral Veil

Premium Member A poet wears their work in place of wounds

Premium Member Who Wears Short Shorts
who wears short shorts? she wears short shorts. a cute song from the seventies. with preteens bopping around showing their cute fannies. who wears short shorts today?
