Hey Molly Cool, why are you wasting your time, girl?

by Jolie Jordan

I don't tell my mother
how I dream of being able to
leave you.

Over the line
She asks.
And I say, I say
"Oh, us? We're good.
Yeah, doing just fine."

Ask me
what it is to know love
and I'll tell you how it feels
to have your lovers mouth
on more empty bottles
than your lips.

Forgive and forget,
and clean up the floorboards tomorrow.

I've been here (sort of), but I never got any powerful, graceful poetry out of it...
