naked by Lauren Singerwhy do we take signs
we don't intend
to follow?
we are not here
to trade
papers.
i am always
on the brink
of something amazing.
i am
a well-compiled mess.
we exist...
and that's enough.
(sometimes
it just feels so good
to be naked and to not care
who should see your flaws.) 12/11/2004 Posted on 12/11/2004 Copyright © 2024 Lauren Singer

Posted by Paul Lastovica on 01/05/07 at 09:28 PM we exist and that's enough. ditto. a few lines back you were on the brink of something amazing. a few lines later you arrived. and the last bit is a sigh of relief. |
