Backward Day
Lilly Hogan
It’s backward day at yoga studio now
student tells me I do pose wrong I say angry face to her
poetry reading I pull out my poem
paper just has sticky man drawing
I smile at u, sticky man
you da best, even when rain in da city
I buy wig from man on street
it like funny movie w lady in hotel in Tokyo
I’m sorry your face looks like that
I’m not intentional just stupid LOL
my body got no tattoo on purpose
people always saying like why I say I dunno
I always getting into fights at yoga place
like why u all so stupid yoga people?
we’re all gonna die but my face looking older
fuck... babes... do I get Botox now
I start to feel like stupid yoga people sometime
but worse major “release me from this mortal coil” vibes
but I’m not in Denmark....hmmm.....
I wonder whether or not to jump off bridge
whatever I go to Sephora
I put on sample moisturizer I am OK—no Botox
