Real Poets Don't Fall In Love.

[thisissoemo]

real poets don't fall in love.
warm-and-fuzzy poets do, writing sonnets
of sunshine hair and pearly teeth,
but real poets don't fall in love.

real poets fall into lust
catching lovers like raindrops
on the tips of their tongues
in a downpour.

real poets can even think they're in love

i had my hair braided in tiny braids once. it was in grade three or four and im pretty sure it was a birthday gift. i sure knew what i wanted back then.

Among 5000 other books, I'm totally reading The Bell Jar right now! It's good.

The Bell Jar is one of the most influential books I've ever read. I tell everyone I meet to read it, and I mention it somehow in conversation 2-3 times a day.

I'm glad you're enjoying it! And hope your summer's going well!
