my first eight months
couldn't wake up, couldn't love anyone
my first eight months
a little orange cast had broken my thumb
kept in a box
your words bit so sweet
flavored lip gloss
chewing me up
bubblegum beats
sneakers out in the street
my first eight lies
were burned on a CD, dipped in cheese fries
you knew i was gone
shouting from the back of
schaeffer hall
you'd better get lost
my eight fuckups
were buttered with newsprint
and gorgeous bad luck
i stretched out my arms
but the lock was in place
el cielo was marred.
