poem I wrote after the new taylor swift album came out thank god
I haven't seen the sun in four days and my dad just said he was proud of me for finishing the leftovers. mailing letters is a great way to feel like you're from before when no one could google you and see that you did acapella in college one time I wanted so bad to fall in love that I did it what's it called when you have a sixth sense that your ex is engaged?

📓i'm not sure if everyone knew this already, or if it's just me discovering this now, but before Leonard Cohen had any notariaty as the famous cult singer-songwriter, he possessed quite a bit of notariaty for his poetry! i found myself at leonardcohenfiles.com by some divine act of nature, and have been pleasantly enjoying his poetry, divorced from his music, so I hope you may get to enjoy as well.
here's one of my favorites:
THE PRO 1973 ("Lost my voice ...") from "Death of a Lady's Man"
Lost my voice in New York City
never heard it again after sixty-seven
Now I talk like you
Now I sing like you
Cigarette and coffee to make me sick
Couple of families to make me think
Going to see my lawyer
Going to read my mail
Lost my voice in New York City
Guess you always knew

🦁An epistolary love-poem that found its way to me during a totally psychotic time in my life, this, as well as Jamie Hood’s how to be a good girl, inspired me to start writing my own poetry. My dear friend was reading Coeur de Lion back when we lived together & would text me photos of stanzas that stuck out to her. We would would often have long conversations about men (obviously), boundaries, relationships, sex, self growth, etc, etc. Those conversations as well as these brilliant words by Ariana have a special place in my heart. In April, this excerpt struck me the most, “I guess there’s no point saying these things we did. We know what we did. But stating them is like reinstating them inside me.” Moody!!!!! Kinda dark!!!!! Real good if you’re into that kinda thing. God knows I am!!!!! Xoxo
