This poem is dedicated to Dylan Richards because I promised to dedicate a poem to him (but it should probably actually be dedicated to certain philosophers in my life (NOT Jean-Paul Sartre))

I keep trying to pin my heart on my sleeve 
but the pins fall out
I tried to glue a window to my soul
and that didn’t work either

How to Sinusoidally Button Your Sweater

  1. Button the top button like you normally would.
  2. Skip a Buttonhole: From the top, move down to the next button. Button it too—BUT WAIT!!!!—button it with the buttonhole below the one you would normally use. 
  3. This should’ve created a weird lump.
  4. Skip a Button: Move down to the next buttonhole but DON’T USE THE NEXT BUTTON!! Instead, try using the one below it. 
  5. Skip a buttonhole again, then skip a button etc. until the end. If there are an even number of buttons then the ends will line up correctly; if there are an odd number of buttons then they won’t and you’ll look stupid. 
  6. Your sinusoidal sweater has a frequency of 0.5 Hz.

low gloom 
esoteric long round murmur 
a tangled incantation 

stark wisps 
goofy mumbles 

antiquated ritual 

in the thick murk 
we invoke terse moans

at a shallow angle 
there’s an orange and a blue side to everything
