today is a boy's birthday.
that boy happens to be my little brother.
fourteen and still trying to grow up too fast.
if only there were more lost boys
in the world.
tonight it is silver and snow colored swirlies.
show me the moon.
and make
make sure
that you dance naked in your room
and sing when you've got
no voice left.
why do people value perfection
in objects so much?
like cars.
maybe because
(listen real close now)
they can never
find it
in themselves or
other people.
I wish to live in a place
where not having your head screwed on
just right
is a very real problem.
(or it could just make you hate christmas).
And we could talk in rhyme
without meaning to.
pink shimmer frost glass cupcakes.
and scatter clatter
games.
movie. screen. silver screen. starlets. classy. soft. grace. delicate. pastel colored. a little blond starlet that people fall in love with simply because she makes them feel when she's up there on the big screen. classic. kiss. cowboys. good guy. bad guy. john wayne. sweet man. tipping hats. hold the door for the lady. stand when she leaves the table.
