Jokes

Dirty little secret girls
are dirty themselves.

I brush it off when I step into the light.

The child in my brain is really squirming.
The room is all wrong.
Details.
Details. (But details mean everything.)

You're funny,
just like everyone else.
I want to be funnier than you
But I'm not.

I'm a shadowed secret
in a dusty drawer.

I laugh when I hear your jokes.

The oaks will not grow,
The fresh garments will not arrive for me.

I want to be famous.
