EDMO! (Central)

Originally published in Makeshift Magazine #1 ‘A Hole To Dig Out Of’

This whole sex thing creeps you out
but only when you really think about it
Mostly you only think about it at a surface level
boobs, liquids, no relation to procreation
But when you stink of it in the morning,
or when someone’s bawdy comment fails to titillate
and just makes you feel a bit sick and lonely
It’s very easy to decide that people are monsters
And we should stop touching each other

Bullshit

A work in progress (because I’m still rubbish at printing).

Talking to my dad on the phone
and he sounded kind of snuffly,
I kept waiting for him
to tell me that my grandad had died.
But he didn’t,
my grandad hadn’t died
My dad was just snuffly
