i love you so much
honey - pretty boy
and maybe you'll just love me too if
I get my nose sawed down
or if I stop drinkin' coffee
or maybe if you go blind and you like the sounda my voice
so quietly leaking into space
choosin' sides
I don't contemplate life with you
I contemplate the six strangling seconds it takes you
to go from
you like me
ya hate me
you quietly leak into the space of thinking you're a kinda good guy.
this can of coffee was 100% fresh
guaranteed
two years ago.
this American life on the radio reminds me of the paint and the old times before I met you
it was easier in those days
to just turn it off.

wow....
damn, girl.
the last part of this is very powerful.
there should be a whole collection of poems and essays with the common thread of 'references to npr.'
(not to change the subject or anything...)
