Tonight I ate organic black bean microwaveable soup.

In a rare moment spent away from all of my homework, applications, and work-work, I read through my old posts. Why do you people read this? I only kid, I love you. Some non-poems. Because I only wish I were a poet.

There is a dead raven lying in my parking space. I refuse to park there until it is gone. So for now, I will walk past it every morning and every evening and every supermarket trip and coffee run in between.

For I will consider myself a poet.
For I will write and you will call me marvelous. Brilliant even.

I was sitting in traffic
today listening to another
mellow indie song
rife with violins and
cellos when all of a
sudden I glanced up
from my forty-cent water to
see a blizzard of fat snowflakes
swirling around me
out of nowhere as
the cellos made their
grand final statement
and I smiled and thought to
myself incredulously

Is this the shit that Lifetime movies are made of?

you guys are fun. my poetry teacher was talking about his friend who only uses the first syllables of words. like for "totally" she says "totes". i don't know why these comments made me think of that. i think it was the yaeYAE! s. "thanks."
