tongue burnt from airplane coffee
rinse and spit bright pink
tense the muscles in my leg
give up my independence
subdivided suburban flat
day-6 hair and cutoffs
that i bought when i was thirteen
i do not need provocation
to spend $200 but i do need it
to write more than 50 words a day
they’re nixing the dolls’ passports
they got rid of my favourite
sauce at subway (blue cheese)
my dad broke his leg
everything smells burnt
i’m only ever moving closer
i hugged the mayor in a gay club
heavy metal heart
pōti i konei e hoa mā
words like stars in your throat
drink the bathwater and the baby
see the west; it’s shutting down
your government doesn’t like you
out until 5am burn me alive
stop asking if i’m fine
havaianas and knockoff perfume
spineless speaker
kill those darlings do it
diane keaton jane goodall
practising not being vegetarian
nobody’s coming to save you
i’m only ever moving closer
