Poetry

fuck

fuck

those words I waste
on the media social
on the bullies who don’t understand

fuck

i could write that
into a poem or a novel
or a letter

fuck

black ink
i used to love that
in another age

fuck

we lived then
like breathed fresh air
and stuff
and walked and wrote
and said things to people’s faces
until they walked away
or beat us up

fuck

those were the days

fuck fuck fuck

it’s all changed
and no-one understands
a word we say
or write

fuck

they’re too busy
making up what they think
is a new language
when it’s nothing but shit
and no-one’s listening
anyway

fuck oh fuck

instagram
facebook
twitter
snapchat
fuck them all

give me a piece of paper
