Some poems i've kicked around

these are some poems i wrote a while back that have been on slips of paper and floating around my school bag:

A substitute body
To be replaced
Night after night
You'll never be happy
You know
You think
It's just a kiss
And someone to cuddle up to
Ease up on the
Substitute

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Feeling the goosebumps
Under a thin Jacket
Raised skin
On arms
A shiver
Barley touching
Anyone
---------------------------------------------------------------------

I didn't know
Until today
Where you were
Is it white?
Is it sterile?
Withheld infromation
Gives my eyes
That familiar strain
Pressure against
And behind everything
You've stood
Why now
I'm not angry
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Play the guitar
Sit around
Watch TV
Think about writing a song
Be a music snob
And play guitar
Get drunk and fuck
You like it
When girls like you
It disgusts me
The heavy weight rises and falls
Inside my stomach
Play the guitar
Noodle around
Like you know what you're doing
Everyone in town
Are you cool?
Do you play the guitar?
You must be
In your vintage t-shirts
And ragged pants
So punk rock
So apathetic
You don't care
So why should i?
