IN DAVID’S TEA I WAITED FOR G
I overthink everything in my life and that
ruins my life I hate being a girl so much
Do you know how much easier life would be if
I wait and wait for sleek blonde loveliness
to finish her sentence at this place until the fall of night I waited for Godot
Hoping against hope that she wasn’t just another
girl wishing she were born a boy

EAT THE WORM I IMPLORE YOU
I resent the snow as though it shows up
to induce claustrophobia and mid-winter
migraine These relentless mudbeige days without sun
are raining on my wellness parade Even
the tea at Teavana is not the antidote to my malaise
O you denizens who growl & march zombielike into the frozen haze
Something so much stronger is required until
Toronto emerges from the maze When we will
squander again our hot pink dusks and forget about all of the beige
