LEAKED FROM MAGGIE LEE - 2x POEMS WOAH


54)
people tend to listen more
when you bottle it up
and let them fuck up
and then unleash it all at once
upon them
they cant miss it then
its all right there
and they feel like shit
for not seeing it before
which of course is the effect you are going for
now they feel like shit
for you having felt like shit
while they acted like shit
all that time
and now they want to change
and now you need to change
because all of you are fucking retarded
for trying to win






36)
i am tryin to run a darn life, in a direction of ‘okay’
i am going to change and change and change
and if you want to tell me ‘stop’ you must fall in love with me
hehe
it’s like a trick

LEAKED SHAUN GANNON - CONTINENTAL DRIFT

As you drag your luggage through the open door to find some other place in Rialto for the night, find a place where our voices can’t make each others’ neck hairs rise and our eyes won’t roll on reflex, I think of how the rock plates deep beneath our feet grind and punch one another, and how we only know of their existence by their constant conflict and separation.

LEAKED SUBMISSION FROM BRITTANY WALLACE - 2x POEMS


crossword puzzle mornings

we walked into the river and it was cold
and we were out of our minds
no one else accompanied us
you and i, together we charged our bravery
together we charged our stupidity
the water up to my neck, i watched as your head submerged
i assumed you were laughing underwater
you were actually closer to drowning
together we are closer to dying
but you came back up and we made it across
all we lost was two packs of cigarettes
together we walked home shivering
together, we always make it home



i think i know what i want now

driving to your house in the rain
sunglasses on, coming to conclusions
the confusion is settling, and i am still
i’m not kicking it up, no, not now
i desire simplicity, an apartment with you
filled with nice things, a big bed
good food and my cat and my friends
those things make me better
make everything better
those things make getting older easier

NOAH CICERO - 3x POEMS THIS IS GOOD GUYS


Dubstep

There was a new hire at work today
Tom asked him if liked dubstep
he was like yeah

I told Tom I liked dubstep
he wrote some names
of dubstep songs he enjoyed
on a piece of paper

I went home and youtubed them

Joe Montana

a 35 year old dishwasher
said to a 31 year old cook
when I was little
I covered my walls
with posters of Joe Montana
I said when I grow up
I will be like that man

the 31 year old cook said
I did the same with Axl Rose


One Lonely Bird

it was winter

I was walking
from my car to the
front door of my house

heard one bird
caw
caw

TPP LEAK JORDAN CASTRO - 2x POEMS FROM FORTHCOMING POETRY BOOKS


"RAYMOND CARVER’S ‘WHAT WE TALK
ABOUT WHEN WE TALK ABOUT LOVE’
(THE STORY) OR DENNIS COOPER’S
‘UGLY MAN’ (THE BOOK)"


i want my body to transform into a complete, declarative sentence written using active voice and a
   prose style similar to raymond carver’s 'what we talk about when we talk about love' (the story)
   or dennis coopers 'ugly man' (the book) and i want the sentence to convey the sentiment 'we
   all have limited time' and 'honestly, i'm sorry'



"OUT IS THE ONLY KIND OF NODDING I DO"


never say yes to anything ever


no one has anything helpful to offer you


treat them accordingly

ANOTHER NEW LEAK JUSTIN CARTER - 'MEDITATIONS OVER FRIED-RICE'


Love,


      she says, as she moves
      the pork dumpling to her lips


is a cyanide tablet. 


We’re sitting at a table
inside Shanghai River,
the lights are dim
and my coffee is cold.
      I say,


I don’t want to take a pill.


      I say,


I want love in its purest form,


like a crystalline solid
mined from the earth of my body,
from the center of my granite heart.
I dip a ball of fried pork
into sweet and sour sauce;
the sauce drips down my chin,
on to my shirt.
      She says,


that’s not what love is.


      She says


what do you really want


      She says,


I am telling the truth.


The waitress takes my cup
and pours the molten liquid into it,
but when I press it to my lips,
the coffee is still cold.
