Splattered on the Wall

by Juan Felipe Herrera

Juan Felipe Herrera

I used to be like you
Scared boney and
full of fears about not having
What I used to have
About not being able to be
The wild girl with crazy real happiness

Swaying inside of me-roaring
Out of me at the blur of
Blue-blue rain on my fuzzy fancy face

One day I'll tell you

What it is to rule a thousand deserts
Where your naked feet
Can stomp the earth
And the earth rumble crumbles
Your name like a god

Let's roll! Orale! A fan-shaped
clogsy gummy girlvoice spits itself out of a long dried raisin colored metal
fishy smelly smoky pizza crusty snot flicked itchy donut socky sugar
caked oily Honda Civic
Letsssss rollll!

So___uh___I__ crack the door but- it's
too___[cut]
