this is
the actual
space in
which i
live
in which
I never
baked
a cake
for
anyone
this is
the actual
face with
which
I kissed
ass and
told lies
when I
was nineteen
this is
the actual
taste
of missing
out, of
a life
that feels
restricted
coiled in
on itself
and minor
panic
never
really
startles all
of the birds
that eat the
crops
in the
farmers field
