Sometimes the poem is just
a controlling compulsion
looking at my fingerprints
realizing I'm 3D printed
I've been on some sinking ships
but this one wasn't until you started
throwing fire everywhere
if everywhere you go is toxic
maybe it's something you're carrying?
"We're aware of the Situation"
oh the stories I could tell
poetry fragments that clutter
"In all my time, I've never seen—"
Oh beautiful workplace
how you give me just enough
love to keep me coming back
yet familiarity with
unhealthy relationships
reminds me that this is a lesson
to show me how I like to be loved
so I can find that elsewhere
time to keep looking
