but i miss her
oh, she was so fun
with killer dance moves
and they killed her
and she moved on

quarter to four and even the email server is asleep
but she’s buying a stairway to heaven:
the lack of other people
for a recovering over-social hyperconnecting motherfucker from hell
nah, not recovery
just rest for the wicked
and the rest’s for the virtues, the muses, and the humors

but that’s not why they put up with it.
they put up with it cuz she’s a genius….sometimes, he says.
she’s determined like a verdict
reigning down
down
down
cuz if you can’t see a goddamn thing when you look
maybe you should close your eyes
and be surprised.
