An overeaten white hmm shy
Of ripe, full of puss, hairless.
The nasality echoes lodgers,
Mucus-hardened. Shopping
For apple pie. Fair warning:
“Best before hygiene enters
The conversation”. Trophies
For the mess hall, calculator
Boobs for the teenager. Bar
None, less is more or less
More than least of all: taste.

I have tears inside my happiness
And like a window open to traffic,
Exhaust. I know that byproducts
Happen, that costs always occur.
The wind in my hair isn’t free but
How much it feels unborrowed. Me
And that expensive velocity, we
Are good for journeys but journeys
Aren’t good for ever. I would brake
My appetite to thin out into escape
If there wasn’t still gas in the tank.
