In Here
Observation Poetry
Apr 11, 2024
Girls come in here
With nails
Long enough to claw their way
Out of the madness of tantrums
They come in with sweeping lashes
Thick enough to separate
Stardust particles from heaven
Girls come in here
With only the top
Of their tops
The midsection shrunk to the base
Spiderwebs of last night’s dreams
They come in with holes in their pants
So that the angelic demon inside them
Can meander its way out
Girls come in here
With that Instagram attitude
And selfie wrists
And push-em-away fists
Wearing crown jewels of Image
With a Tik Tok skit dying on their lips
Such was 2023
