June Henry - Moonsick

To Rate
Rat me out
Call the exterminator
I need help
I'm moonsick sick again
Lunatic, neurotic pluck and pick
Till i pass out at witching hour
Can’t explain why it happens to me
Like a werewolf but instead of wolf I turn crazy
Placebo like a sugar pill maybe
I take so many I've got seven cavities
I rock back and forth in the kitchen
Hum with the microwave in unison
Hold myself until I feel different
Cry until I feel okay
❲?❳ me up screaming in the car
Driving through my new happy place
I’m sure the carhops recognize me
My new friends are triweekly strawberry milkshakes
My teeth will rot at the same pace as my brain
Swеar im sober but my mom asks if im on MDMA
I don't know why im acting this way
But I swear I’ll be finе
As soon as the moon starts to wane
I was almost named luna
But my dad shot it down
Said people will call me looney
Well look where we are now
One look at my notes app and id be institutionalized
But I promise as soon as the moon wanes I’ll be fine
As soon as the moon wanes I’ll be fine
I promise as soon as the moon wanes I’ll be fine
As soon as the moon wanes I’ll be fine
