DON'T COME CLOSE

Three new poems to enjoy and dissect...

'Agyrophobia'

Whistling tuneless through dry summer lips
Laminated and yellow with morose glamour tips
Fresh phobias and acne to add to the crest
Submissions sound sweet but still feel under dressed


'Halvesies'

Creative carriers with test pattern eyes
Convinced your kid sister they're really great guys


'A List of People Who Would Probably Like Me if They Knew Me'

Eclipsed by percentages, theories and cheats
I was kid Icarus to your legendary wings
Graphing calculator putting "but"s in the seats
I'm held together by a spool that sings

Wandering tired temperature gauge
Made massive cuts in our intellectual drones
Girls flaunt their nonsense, boys hide their age
Glorious fossils with synthetic bones
