by Austin Miles
instrumentalizing bullshit
shut the fuck up
about engagement metrics
look @ an arm
if it has fingers
@ riverside park
a man on a nearby bench
smokes, unrelatedly
not an answer
not an answer
no savings concerns or time issues
ignominious ending on
C. River
the attack ads went:
law n’ order
cdn’t care less
indecipherable
sorry for my child’s behavior
no kink cld gainsay
+ the scene, u realized
was just an amalgam
of other scenes
so fake + so tan
but so drinkable
+ you too’ve
got drinkability
