STILL LIFE WITH NEW GRAVITY
I’m sorry 
I’m not interested
in arranging apples
on an oak table.


The action hero
says there’s no
emotion without
motion.


You ask me
what I see
when I imagine 
our future,


and I say
hoverboards.
BLIND SPOT
What I’ve got
left to offer
is not much,


but I know how
to write in reverse
on the fogged-up window


of your perfect shitbox.
Every version of me,
every nervous person


in the breakdown lane
thinks my index finger
is cold
is cute,


but I’m just
letting the truth
tell me this time.
