sohappytoday
so i just bought so sad today by melissa broder
poet and essayist i wanna be an essayist too
so i bought bigger pieces of paper for a start
melissa’s essays are really poems in disguise
and my poems are you guessed! essays in disguise
though mr. de montaigne father of the essay is doing
back flips hey michel ! i live in a time when the human
attention span has been attenuated by twitter mister
the titles and subjects i shall plumb are not deep some
are positively creepy but i can goddamn guarantee u that
i will not rip off cormac mccarthy as i am want to do (paraphrasing yes)
stay tuned for these upcoming titles themes wetdreams wanks:
my family is an outward bound destination
husband interruptus
brother interruptus
so happy
so strong
so flinty
so so
dear death i’m sorry we unfriended u
and so on
oh and: only fear what can hurt u (dante alighieri +sonny lee atkins at 8)
but the truth is that i hate big pieces of paper cue cards
suit the brand of confessionallyconvulsive missives i treasure
so pull up your socks
and stop playing with yer virus
i need your full attention
