impetus precedes me
encumbered by the lashings;
i’ve been acquitted
but so too have i been paltry
i’m off me
talking of things far beyond me
so far off
i’m osprey
skimming water for the bodies
offering:
my personality—advent calendar
novelty set me free
(probably)
logically
i’m listerine in your third eye
dimethyltryptamine
the lifeline you allotted me
now you’re on my time
you little skunk
give me the crystals
or your battleship is sunk
call me dubya bae yeets
can’t defeat me
clowning on dowry is a hobby
deflowers dumb brain
with ease of a train wreck
splits heads
slithers in
so as to sever this nape
vapes rings
says things that make it onto pinterest
i’m defected
embedded with selfish
i keep at ebb
and flow over headless
i keep my age on
and pine for the magic
had it
tragic
people call that aesthetic
jd jurado-I’m defected is about doing things to attract attention and interest instead of doing what you want.
