VACUUM CLEANER
you’re so lackluster
and i’m so blockbuster
so fuckin needy
and i’m so dreamy
creamy
like a serendipitous smoothie
breathing while ur moody
i’m too cool for you
a million fuckin roses
when i walk into a room
watch as you come closer
take a sip or two
and i’m getting older
so why waste time on you?
dripping love & glitter
you’re all doom & gloom
i just stepped on to the red carpet
and lit some candles
with my lipstick
while you stayed home
and made love
to your vacuum
STUN GUN
i left and took your stun gun with me
and then
i pulled the trigger
and watched your whole world
stop
all while i was sucking
on an intergalactic lollipop
these huntsmen
hunt me
they all wanna
taste me
and tame me
like the shrew
whose shoes
i’ve grown into
so comfortably
but it’s your fire
that rings my doorbell
ever so quietly
it’s your face i see in lanterns
like stars in the sky
like i am your death
like you are my life
so tell me,
when you pray for love
do you believe it’s real?
or are you just oozi
