scarecrow pages

i change my mind about everything as of five days ago

i dont care what people say
you are not a turtle
you are a bunny

i never thought
a little bunny
would be such a good fuck


today i thought i had a good idea but it turned out to be maybe not such a good idea, or maybe it was a good idea, but really i dont think it was

i was tired of forgetting to put on earrings
so i took a needle and string
and a seashell

i sewed the seashell to my ear
it hurts like hell
maybe i should have sterilized the needle
or maybe sewing things to your head is stupid

my permanent earring is very pretty though
aside from the crusty blood on it


everything i own is pink

i dont know what age i began to be such a little twat
(im guessing about five or six)


what does it feel like to wear those glasses?

well, it feels like i just got out of jail with thirteen counts of child molestation under my belt and im going back to my job on the school bus and i got a pocket full of jolly ranchers


my hands are really quite clammy right now

my lover is wearing a business suit
she looks very important
she is interviewing at a hedge fund firm
i am taking her very seriously right now
i am going to masturbate in the bathroom
when she leaves


i change my mind about everything again (this is getting awkward)

i fall in love on average
twice a year
i'm not sure
if thats a good ratio
or not
