man, i'm not going to lie
i want to find love. i want to be delirious; i want to be besotted.
but most times, i don’t really care. i want to be your right now with no consequence. let’s not make it complicated. let’s not analyze a moment’s fun to be anything but. let’s enjoy this very second and not be awkward that it’s anything else or anything it’s not.

saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked, dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix, angelheaded hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery of night, who poverty and tatters and hollow-eyed and high sat up smoking in the ...
