TUMBLE WEED SEX DRIVE

(Published In Lit Chaos)


When I was young

Anything could

Get me off



Smoking a cigarette

I had found on the ground

Was a party to me



And staying up

until four

in the morning

To watch star trek

Was living in the

fast lane



I’ve jerked off

to some strange shit.

I used to jerk off

to my biology text book.

When I was done

I would to lie in bed

for hours

Hungover with guilt,

feeling like a cannibal



And to this day

I still can’t tell

Whether sex

is supposed to make us

Remember

that we are just animals

Or help us forget,



All I know

is those damn diagrams

of the human body

made me feel lonely

Way before

I knew what loneliness was.



so, here’s to science.

i just want to say

Thank you,

You were the first

Cold hearted woman

i have ever known
