my superpower
i have the ability to delude myself into thinking
there is more to a person than
is so obviously there
never mind that when you and i talk
you must become derailed and speak
excessively to at least three other people
(strangers, sometimes.)
at speeds that exceed a speeding train
you cannot remember what it was that i do with my time
or that i am in school
or that i like to look at the sky too much
your blue eyes freeze me
your inked skin in the sun
i am left imagining what it would be like
if we could spend more than a spasm
of ten minutes alone together
what it would be like is
how it is already:
pretty shitty.

names have been changed to protect the innocent.
he said aloud,
"i do not have a bank account."
and she thought, "well, that's stupid and does not make sense."
they walked five more steps to the corner.
then she thought, stealing a sideways glance at him
while he was smoking, "well, you are stupid. so i guess that does make sense."
