I wrote this in a laundromat while listening to Kendrick Lamar


Wanna know how many dudes I’ve banged?

well sit down take a biopsy of

the inner walls of my blood pumper my blood thumper wait

what do you see? oh I know

little tiny letters that read

“we’re sorry for the…”

I got dark, I got evil, that rot inside my DNA

 

I’m sitting in my bed

belly swollen with soba and red

soda between the nails

of my fingertips nail clippings

on my floors because I’m too lazy to pick them up

I got off, I got troublesome, heart inside my DNA

 

Playing with dollies is like

playing the Sims

my cat inspires me to love blankies 

I can walk into Old Navy topless

So just stop with that talk I got

Realness, I just kill shit 'cause it's in my DNA

I am an 18 year old college student studying English with an emphasis on Creative Writing and Asian Literature. I started writing poetry when I was 15 in high school and my American Literature teacher made it an assignment. The whole class was scared to read their work after I read mine. That's when I knew I should continue to pursue poetry as an art form. I love many other forms of writing, of course, especially suspense and mystery. I like to listen to sad music until I fall asleep at night. My mom writes fan fiction and I edit it. My cat and my roommate are my main influences. Please comment on my poetry! I love getting feedback of any kind, including the negative!
