Mind Fuck
A Sobriety Lullaby v.2
I've upgraded
to
bi-weekly
therapy
sessions
one
just a quick
digital
drop
in
so much introspection
between me and my
sobriety
it's my
bestie
cause the only one I want to
see
this much
ugly
is
me
that's why I like addicts
get it
Get it?
sister said
only I could fuck my life up
this much
and have it work out
well, she's not wrong
I'm charming
as
been so guilty
been so innocent
that's why I'll never fix
it
my
chipped
tooth
just kidding
I can't
afford
that
cause
there's so much profit
from
this sickness
you know they got to keep us
thirsting
so girls
get your meds right
and girls
keep your
vag
tight
don’t forget to
act
right
and retaliate:
ditch the
booze
cause we're so hook-line-and-sinker
generation of chronic
overthinkers
career goal
self
commodity
it's outrageous to
me
what a
mind fuck
it is to
be
alive

Was I a Model in Japan?
During my time in Nagoya I worked and lived at the strangely famous hostel and café Nagonoya. With its chequered floors and florescent lighting it felt quite dated, but I think that was supposed to be part of the charm. The dorms were always fully booked on weekends with domestic tourists and there was always a buzz in the downstairs café. Camera crews were constantly in and out of the place interviewing the Japanese staff members who worked the café. I think it had something to do with the egg sandwiches. At least that was what was on most of the merchandise, except for that one dishcloth with the owner’s face on it. Was I being employed by a local celebrity?
