You Love It and I Like It. Gunner Smith. Acrylic paint. 2021.
my body is an open house
with a sign staked out front in the way i pitch my voice.
no one bothers to leave the lights on when they go,
and a girl is scared of the dark
and the way her heart settles and aches when she is alone.
some houses are not meant to be homes without first being torn to the ground.
