bender number done
in praise of push everything away
frozen winter muck fucking up
the blue jumpsuit
everybody says
"i bet you are warm.
who gives a fuck
how trashy you look"
bending myself in half
bending myself apart
winter cold breaking skin
on my fingers that start
to pick it all up
put it together
in a warm shower
the squeaky clean lack
of a five o clock shadow
coffee and sugar
and study for finals
pass the exams
get shit faced pitched
out of head
slightly gone
pick up the pieces
get ready to move on

i have a parka i rarely wear that makes me warm as hell, but i infrequently don it because i can't talk to people or see what's going on around me when i wear it. that extended, tubular fur hood is trouble. warm trouble, but not worth the warmth or the trouble most days. also, it isn't the safest attire if i'm out alone, with my headphones on and no peripheral sight, i'm a cooked little goosey should someone want to throw me in an unmarked van!
