Fred Aiken Writing

Branes, Thoughtless, Comma

branes sprouting out of limbs

caught in a fire set by

adolescent dreams holding secrets

of great affections that are directed at no one

in particular

Uncomfortable, Confused Morning Commute with an Insane Coworker

antoine, if you’re read this,
then know that i felt uncomfortable with your driving this morning,
weaving in and out of traffic like a moonraker
snorting cocaine
while eating processed sugary food, like Little Debbie’s

not to say that i think this poem will make you stop your reckless driving,
but i still feel it necessary to at least let you know;
it made me uncomfortable
