Mustard


YOU'VE LOST CONTROL

Did you know the Romans used to paint plain stone to look like rare marble?

They didn't care what was beneath the surface

As long as the surface was beautiful.

(This only works if there are no holes in your foundation.)


I see you.

I see you

& I see a smile that ruins

And you think that's a compliment.


I think you're angry

Sunflowers don't follow you around all day

You're becoming a Willy Wonka factory tour dropout.


I think you're selfish.

I actually prefer this leaf green.


And do you know

I think you're mad

Every time I wear mustard.
