letra de a voice in my head (i carry it everywhere) - jordaan mason

keep it brief. tuck tape
around the bad spots
carve a knife into the person that you think you are
let it sit there long enough
to make a mess, then clean it up
some lies let us live a little longer
some k!ll us faster, too
guess i’ll keep chewing on this
you agree, i agree, there’s nothing wrong with getting older
except getting older
a phone rings every time someone dies
otherwise
it stays quiet
i put sestinas on the radio to hear the words repeat. a form
can make it feel complete
when nothing else will
you can’t just
hit a pause b-tton. we have to
find another way
to be still

stop moving. stop moving
stop moving. stop moving
stop moving. stop moving
stop moving. stop moving
(learn to say no. don’t
make the bed for someone you don’t even want to share it with
it’s just a pattern that you’ve been sewn into
some quilts have guilt in every square
shame is the way i wear myself out
it’s like listening to how a book has put it and not yourself.)
