the on/off switch is broken.

by Olivia Weinkein

when you touch yourself
do you ever think of me.
boy, you have no business here.
when you break their hearts
do you ever pretend they're me.
boy, state the time and place
any time any place. i'll be there.

when you plan your future
do you ever curse our past
boy, i taught you a river of things,
how to spill and how to grasp

when they laugh in your face
do you ever remember me.
boy, i was the loudest of them all
cackling in front of you, cackling
beneath you

....
.......

when you touch yourself
do you ever think of me.
boy, i have no business here
