Amorist fake as

silk flowers

false-hearted motherfuckers

Feelings sweet as nectarines

We try to hide em

We try to fight em

Wafting sweetness

of spring

Self-satisfaction

like a lounge lizard

Don-t- want- chu!

Cold blooded boo

I, mean Don Juan

We don’t breathe a word

We want a confidant

Bae with us relentlessly

Fool we

don’t put the effort in—

Yeah that the generation,

I grew up in

Puddin’

We want instant-

Gratification without

gallant gratitude

Phil-landed-her!

I mean Philanderer

Romeo

the only buzz

we get

is from a text

We will read

too much into

Casey-no-va!

I mean Casanova

Turn on the car

with a press of a button,

without having

to wait for the engine

to warm up

Hesitation

like a ladykiller

Amorist fake as

silk flowers

false-hearted motherfuckers

Feelings sweet as nectarines

Watch all the gears grind,

all ladylike

Pay no mind ladybug

Selfies in self-destruction mode

We keep grinding,

eventually we be fire

brilliant

as diamond studs

surreal poetry
