it all feels

so different

once you get to

know the real version

at first it hurts

almost like a bee sting

but then it stays inflated

for weeks to eventually

blossom into an iris

that guides you

towards a path of independence

​

there you might meet
a fountain shaped
like a triangle
it will grant you
one thing but
only if you provide
good reason not to
get it yourself

​

then it will ask

for you to sit down

focus on the motion

of stirring gas station coffee

to the rhythm of

sweet sixteen
