"We stand together by the creek in my backyard / watchin’ the stars fall one at a time. / A third of the sky’s black now. / Your hand’s in mine."

The Summer Of Manifestos

When we were poor,

and unemployed

And you'd sit on my bed reading Marx, smoking cigs

while I'd write poems about you in my mind

When they turned off our AC, and our water heater broke

We'd take cold showers when the skeeters bit

My darling, my antithesis

You spent our last dime on a gram of weed

We smoked until the sun came up

#poetry #angels #gotta thank tumblr user boykeats honestly he got me REALLL into angel poetry #poets on tumblr #getting drunk and waking up at 7:30am the morning after leads to fun poetry ideas #the words of a fudgecake #I am so self conscious about poetry as a guy who does not do a lot of poetry or studies it #also as a guy who hates sharing Why somethings up but happily talks about the fact something is up #so like maybe delete later who knows! you can rb though #[scheduled] edit i lied about this apparently it chose not to

Please, let him be soft.

I know you made him

with gunmetal bones

and wolf's teeth.

I know you made him to be

a warrior,

a soldier,

a hero.

So, please, I beg you–

he is all that I have,

and you have so many heroes

and the world have so many more.

Let him be soft,

and let him be mine.

Formal Diagnosis: Bipolar I

Back when the downs were just Slumps and the ups were just Spirals, I was under the impression that I was Special. Maybe, just maybe, there were some remnants of genius underneath a few layers of ickiness. Maybe I’d create something incredible, maybe there was a Plath or a Van Gogh under the layers.

I spent the eve of my eighteenth birthday hotboxing one of my friend’s cars and watching the glowing green numbers on his dashboard clock. The three men around me, one being my boyfriend, giggled and passed his bong around and around. I was new, so I made a point of studying the intricacies of this maneuver. They told me to be careful– I was the asthmatic that previously limited himself to cigarettes– they didn’t want me greening out.

By this point, I had accepted that I was not a geode. I was not Special– the layers didn’t hide a crystal. If anything, I was a Jawbreaker. The only thing that the layers hid were more layers– I was icky all over.

They passed the bong to me. I took a single hit and wheezed into a coughing fit. Eyes watering, lungs burning, I couldn’t seem to catch my breath. They watched as I writhed in agony, eventually lurching forward and throwing up in my buddy’s backseat.

Vomit soaking into my jeans, I watched as the glowing green 11:59 turned to 12:00.

Happy Birthday, the clock spelled out, This Is Adulthood.

I spent the next few months in a Slump, popping the pills that were supposed to suppress them. I’d smoke clove cigarettes and Mary Jane from the comfort of my own dorm bed, much to my Catholic roommate’s chagrin. Maybe I’d drop some ashes on the bedspread, set the whole building alight.

I don’t think I would’ve cared. I had no reason to.

“Literally everything,” I told my psychiatrist, “just feels like stale tortilla chips.”

She wrote me a prescription for more pills.
