I FEEL SICKLY

KENDRA SAID I DON'T HAVE TO GET DRUNK
TO WRITE POETRY ON THIS BLOG
I FEEL SICKLY, IT FEELS LIKE
MY HEART IS A BRIGHT EYES CD
ENCRUSTED WITH LAYERS
OF HONEY AND AGAVE NECTAR
SO THAT IT DOESN'T WORK
AND TYPING THIS POEM
IS LIKE TRYING TO CLEAN IT
BY LICKING IT A LOT
OR USING MY TEETH TO SCRAPE
THE LAYERS OF SHIT OFF THE CD
BUT MY MOUTH IS ON MY HEAD
WHICH IS NOT NEAR MY HEART
IT IS AN IMPOSSIBLE TASK
I WONDER IF THIS MAKES ANY SENSE
I FEEL LIKE IT MIGHT NOT AT ALL
I FEEL A LITTLE AMUSED NOW
I FEEL SICKLY AND AMUSED
I WILL GO BACK TO SLEEP
