Twitter Poem #2
by Kathleen McLeod


1.

how to be music

how to harvest honey

in the heart


2.

being alive makes me nervous


3.

Radiant time differences. Equatorial shimmering. Come across.


4.

it’s not hard to be somewhere else when you’re not anywhere


5.

cough up Illuminati in the sink


6.

no matter how I ask, you only give me the uneasy answers


7.

Teenage boy skateboarders on the bus, wearing singlets and gravel rash

shoulders and dried blood on the tops of their thighs.


8.

I liked your face but a minute later I grew bored with your tattoos.


9.

I thought it hadn’t even hit the sides. Then I fell out of my body.


10.
Twitter is your opportunity to contribute to my ego loss.


11.

These knickers were a mistake.
