got this little habit 
it won't quit 
addicted to my roof
food and bed

nothing against homelessness 
I envy it 
one day
I'll kick this habit
straight in the head

it's that middle class feeling
clinging to my clothes 
sense of privilege and some
childhood photos

middle class feeling
won't let go 
despite evidence to the contrary
that it never was

drop bombs over there
weather's never been the same 
friends have all changed 
faces and names 

you've got plenty of news 
none of it good 
yet you still refuse 
to blow up the world

that middle class feeling
clogging your pores
clinging to ambitions
it's no good 

middle class feeling
tickling your nose 
in all those ads 
in your friends' photos

Non-Binaries

Non-Binaries never wrong nor right  neither black nor white  always poor framing  truth escapes while waiting    you I can’t deny I can’t explain “I” there’s another dimension  we’re always missing    easy solutions feel good  crushing doubts with boots  if nature only gave us straight lines  if god was on our side    it’s never green nor orange  look to the forests  subtleties you miss  haunt dreams in an embrace    not those ones and oh’s  didn’t write the code  swallowing contradictions  before they explode
