I never wanted the fame
All I wanted was the fortune
But now I see all the bright lights and
Imaginary torches
Because I write about Frankensteins monster
When maybe I feel like its me thats the monster
But in reality i think maybe im more like a mobster
Yet you cant see it with your own damn eyes...
Up here BRO
Im back on my shit
I gritted my teeth
Til I said my peace
Haters gone hate
Til I clean my slate
And knock you swing upper cut
Out my life
Youre gonna regret
Destroying my vibe...

Clinging to Childhood
The playground is empty, as it should be past sundown. There is a warm breeze, and I can see everything despite the late hour. What time is it, anyway? It could very well be past midnight. I can never keep track of time, especially in the summer. A prickly piece of popcorn hides like a stowaway in the left cup of my padded training bra. I stuffed the tissue in last minute— a decision I’m beginning to regret, based on the events that are unfolding rapidly before me. To my left, laying non-chalantly on his back, is my date for the evening. He is two years older, could probably grow facial hair if he wanted to, and drives a secondhand Honda. He may as well be a Man. I, on the other hand, feel like a fraud with my too-short short-shorts, sparkly lip gloss, and makeshift push-up bra. I keep my arms pinned to my sides as I feel the dreaded circles of sweat beginning to manifest on my brand new Abercrombie top. I cup my elbows with my hands and stare down at my hint of cleavage, praying that the tissue doesn’t pop out like a white flag surrendouring my lack of womanhood.
