A poem long enough that maybe no one will read it

There is some sort of mystery

about life that I am still unravelling

-

Dom tells me about the rave

she went to last night

maybe I would have gone

but I was so tired and

she said she threw up maybe

three times

-

and I’m telling my brother this

as he drinks the rest of my

Rockstar and eats cold 

roast beef with Sriracha

-

and leaves to help Austin

move, “Porque?”

“Porque, no? Estamos 

Amigos.”

-

“Bueno.”

-

and I’m joking and

asking “What’s wrong

with capitalism?

-

I got

two Rockstars for

three dollars.” but

-

What does anything mean?

It is always constant and

-

I started a blog that people

are liking and so

they re-blog the pictures I

post but

-

I am still alone in my house

smoking and waiting for

-

always waiting for

-

and there is always something

happening

and I say to it

“No, I am not waiting for 

you but

-

the something that

doesn’t have any name

and it’s always 

the same but 

for some reason

always changing

-

maybe it changes because it

is not meant to be found

or maybe

it just feels like it’s changing

because it’s always

slipping through your hands

-

so instead I light a new cigarette

and try to learn

another

song
