There are some things in this poem that would normally turn me off -- the scrolling nature of it (I deleted Twitter for a reason!), the casual 'what the fucks' -- but I appreciate you turning our attention to them and pointing out the use of them. The breathy pauses between lines and the very human 'what the fuck'-ness of things.

I also really loved this:

Please linger

near the

door uncomfortably

instead of

just leaving.

Also, you can always tell me more things about pigeons! I love pigeons.
