just a bit of physical reciprocation

I’ll settle for a fraction
or an indefinite decimal
just help me out a bit please
I know we’re trying to help ourselves
but we hurt each other
but we make each other feel good
but we want such different things
but we want the same thing
I know you want me
you know I want you
I know I want you
you know you want me
but you’ll only admit it
when I’m touching you
feeling you up
until you start dripping
and tell me to fuck you
sometimes you ask if I want
some sort of reciprocity
you know the answer
but you always get
anxious when expressing
your affections
I know you’re trying
I know you can’t tell me
how you really feel
it just sucks sometimes
because at the end of it
I’m alone and my back hurts
and my head aches
and theres so much to do
tomorrow and I don’t want
to do any of it
I just wanna fuck you
and lay in bed and eat ice cream
and smoke all day
even though that’s not
exactly what I want to do

but I can’t do everything I want
to do which really is quite annoying
so I guess now I’ll settle
for sleep

how to use:

as common as carbon is a poetic stream of consciousness.
there are 3 categories of “poems”:

(i) heteroglossic synesthesia (complete poems)
(ii) hobonyms (words with no homes)
(iii) mind jerky (thoughts to chew on)

after reading a poem you have 3 options to “turn the page”

“RANDOM” – takes you to a random poetic expression
#hastags – take you to another random poem with the same theme or motif
#category – takes you to a random poem in the same category

“no one can step in the same river twice, for it’s not the same river and they are not the same person” – possibly Heraclitus

just as no one can step in the same river twice, no one can have the same experience of “as common as carbon” twice
