Books n' crooks read the way. . .
Nifty nooks with books and crooks get the best glances and looks.
At first, I thought there was no shame in reading near chains with crooks and books,
while librarians gave us disapproving looks.
Knowledge and law enforcement downloading. . .
The boding end of the book in the nifty nook that the crook took,
shook me up a bit so. . .
I forsook the crook with the chains, who took the book.
Now, I read with no chains and crooks in the nifty nook,
but I read at a very precise time, with Einstein and Ben Stein,
and everything is turning out much better and quite fine!

The Way I Talk to Myself When No One’s Around
I don’t always feel worthless. It shows up in specific moments. When something goes wrong that shouldn’t have. When I say the wrong thing and hear it after it’s already out. When I can feel a shift in how someone looks at me and I can’t undo it.
