Nice.
Fuck nice.
Nice is nothing.
Nice is neutral.
Nice is flavorless.
Nice is so basic it isn’t even on the list.
I want
Integrity
Loving brutal honesty.
To dig over and over
And find
Potent
Rich
earth.
I want
Conflict
To feel the pull of
Germination and
Crooked tooth beauty.
I want
Soaring imperfection
Redemption
Shades of mood.
You in the kitchen at twilight.
Above all,
I want
An undistilled love
So powerful
It makes me want to dance.
