leighstein:

And for first kisses in fast cars
I drive stick through the Hollywood Hills,

shifting gears just to show off
my nail art to the palm trees.

I only write so I can afford Ryan Gosling’s
day rate and get to second base.

I write to hear the shhhh
of the hundred dollar bills

making love in my vegan alligator
hobo satchel. I write so I’ll be recognized

at airports, at Yankees games, at
all the places where the people

I’ve long hated congregate.
I write because it’s the fastest way

to get famous if you’ve already got swagger
and time to burn and lovers to leave and

songs to listen to on your way out of town
in your best imitation of a wastrel.

I love enjambment.
