a letter to 13 year old me

unrefined words.

call it poetry.

stuck inside the head

of an adolescent kid

i watched him call his mother

a thousand different names

and it all comes out the same

"i am spoiled rotten scum

american and dumb

computerized machine

of self-depraving

consummating

consumerist dream."

was that once me?

what can i change?

i told him he should just obey

listen to what mothers say

they only want the best.

They Told Me Rock And Roll

Would make me sterile. They will have to pry my transister radio out of my dead cold fingers!  Great great reflection. Enjoyed : D ~A~
