Kayla

John Allen

What else would you like to see?

Are my innards not enough?

How much of my head can I pry open?

Before my motivators are a sticky mix of honey and cellophane

And my gut is a rattlesnake teething on the boot of my caretakers.

How plain can I make these encrypted day to day whatdoneits

Before my every movement is an exercise in overthinking

...

How long

Can you ask the same questions before your throat tires

And you're left with a head of confused frustrations and assumptions retired.
