i wanna be an amateur
in everything i do
take shitty photos in bad light
sing pretentious songs with cracked voices
and naive idealistic lyrics
about dismantling social systems
teenage heartbreak powerchords
just another romantic poet punk
roaming the streets at night
with a golden heart and an iron cock
an uneducated fool in broken socks
eating snow for the hell of it
climbing trees, playing in leaves
talk to homeless strangers and bring back
the good ol’ gobbledygook
feeding abstract concepts
into worn out feedback loops
give funeral speeches
while practising hula hoops
drink 5 shots of cheap vodka
before the cameras roll
knowing the world still turns
feel the orgasmic hurt burn
as you press the bruise
unseen, unheard
ocean bird.
