NBD for N.A.B Conversation


Just     only         just 
can’t believe I deleted all 
can I get them back? 
use name a lot in texts means you like someone
WHAT DID YOU DO WHAT DID YOU SAY
NBD 4 N.A.B. that is SO COOL NOW
a couple   minutos my cholita
I call him Nab
just      you really are a GOD SEND but today I am busy
I don’t know what I’m supposed to say now
what am I supposed to say next
there’s busy and there’s BUSY
being a rare breed a special girl
can’t pick up like one of those fucking toy claw machines
we digress
we digress
we digress
no social life ever
got four initials four cool like that
nice to do that
happening in life
that’s so crazy this is weird
still feeling really weird 
did we come home together
did we no no
I’m a special girl like every other girl
as it should be
the TERROR
laid in bed for long time
weird
really weird really stupid
now hurt feelings   write better

now I’m scared
we digress
we digress
really push yourself Aly
it’s really stupid
not in my book! stick with the plan
a different point
the end of the voice, the way to get out of it
FUCK OFF
since neck wrestling’s a tough sport it’s
pulling me into a Christmas tree on the sidewalk
what it’s like to have 1/3s of you split that 
the worst or the best
end up in a Christmas tree? let’s go
take off shoes feel like shit
is YOUR life so busy you can’t put THAT in a poem?

dribbling down
that’s fine
I’m enrolling
we digress
we digress
god you’re never *in the moment*
learning your boundaries
WHAT ARE MY BOUNDARIES
it depends 
1, 3
I don’t know, will I know?
anyone can do this
I WANNA KNOW MY LIMITS
but I’m feeling this be my stay at home mom
it’s more than just talking
less than telling secrets
I get anxious
we digress
we digress
Mom’s right sleep comfortably in my XL twin
it was all uninteresting 
sorry not some DIIV song and
everything they’re all uninteresting but sounds cool
interesting sounds cool or both
always hope for both
in advance getting fat during the winter

(Have a conversation about what you were doing at the time of the conception of one of your poems and weave the two texts together.)
