it’s not coming out as words these days
there’s plenty-a cashed bowls, cigarette ash
soaked coasters
half charged iphones
lipstick on straws
worn heels, broken heels
plenty-a roof screaming, lengthy exhaling
overpriced bagel sandwiches
new faces saying not new things
old faces saying… something awesome, i’d assume
seems like there’s lots of hazy arguments, free free days
complaints on repeat, jokes jokes jokes
on layers of awe, anger, annoyance, abnormality
of wandering contention
it’s not coming out as words these days
but there’s plenty-a laughing, I gotta admit
