—‘CAUSE I’M PICKING UP THE STONES WITHOUT YOU

  


my body

 

 

my body’s been

letting me down lately

and yeah I know

of course I do

take a number duh

you can’t feel safe

at every break

everybody knows that

but nobody knows what

to take when the

fire’s raging

unless you have those

rapid-fire mother instincts

wait

is that sexist

feminist

motherist

prolly

sorry I’m just here

breathing out loud

it’s monday and I don't

know what to do

or where to go

or who to call

because I don’t want

to talk to anybody

but you

though you’re not there

and so my body says

it’s not a part of me

says ha

says you’re in

the wrong line

says this one is actually

going somewhere

says step down

says step away fool
