Come and see the freaks!

Choosing to be a human
is the
worst
decision one can
ever
make.

We take ourselves
far too seriously.
Delusions
of somehow holding dominion over
anything—
We don’t even hold dominion over
ourselves

Teeth whitening,
Laser freckle removal,
Asshole bleaching.

This desire to conform
to some standard of
acceptability
is just such a drag.

I should have been a pair of ragged claws
scuttling across the floors of the sea.
Without a care in the world
and no standard adherence.

Night or day?
Doesn’t matter
I have nowhere to be
but where the ocean
takes me.

Then again,
that would mean I
lose out on
my front row seat to
the freak show.
