thought i was a cancer rising but it turns out i’m just poor.
i share a sun with kurt cobain which means I’m Fuckable &
& Whip Cream Soft. i should birth a leo. let a taurus bury me.
today is a good day for growth. today your anxiety may be high.
this is your inner cop showing off. try to be someone else. listen.
your connection to the infinite is taffy. you can always Evolve.
you are meant for greatness except when you’re not.
you are meant for rest unless the stock pot is burning.
not every poem is for other people. this is a garden plot.
