She gained, loved, and lost three brothers
before she even knew they had a chance and they
had love.
They were all C's-maybe their tiltsy-twist stability came with their names
and their norhymeorreason lip twist ways were meant to be, were set
in unforgiving stone?
After their ship wrecked she
got into the habit of collecting Coca-Cola snap off tabs
and wearing anchors on her sleeves
because it had been agreed that hearts were to be sunk
and lit on gasoline fire in the deep blue, blue sea.
(lovers were to be tied together and thrown in after to be set ablaze)
She also began to use numbers and letters
in ways she hadn't really considered before,
namely for those silly C names
for C's are all that matter, so she took her sledgehammer and
lopped off those other letters and piled them together at the side
to have
C1, C2, and C3.
(she was just 4, as before)
And in the early mornings the walls grew mouths
and the carpet danced beneath her feet
and the voice behind her couch rambled about God killing
Another f*****t
and she wished for the roaring sea
and C1, C2, and C3.
She had no dream girl
and with her gut ripping due to citrus overdose
burning through her system like knives,
she decided
the world would split in two two and Adam Green's
That Sounds Like A Pony
would be painted across the sky of disapointment green
before she ever needed a C5.
(Because, who knows, pigs might fly)

I actually love this. More, please?
The only "critique", if you will I have is that where you have written: "norhymeorreason" grammatically, it would be correct to write "no-rhyme-or-reason". Also it will be easier for the reader to understand. I'm an English major and it took me a few seconds to figure out what you meant. Its just sort of a distraction from your beautiful, beautiful piece. Also, disapointment is spelled w - Report As Spam
