Consequences from Fish Bowl by Kate Davis

I forgot
my wallet and my keys
in a cab in the city
so I got
down on my knees
crying out to a corporate deity
a black hole
was tearing into me
where my heart
had forgotten about fragility
and tenderness and your absentee

Without being emotional
just going through the motions of
one big self sabotaging empty bitch
it’s scary to realize the reasons why
you wanna die
and that you would spare them of
the consequences

On the shore
the medium told me
I will grind for eternity
and what's more
I’ll never be rid of a hex
that my ex's mom put on me
I melt down
in this cheap plastic chair
where my heart had forgotten
that you were near to me
and waiting there ever patiently

Without being emotional
just going through the motions of
one big self sabotaging empty bitch
it’s scary to realize the reasons why
you wanna die
and that you would spare them of
the consequences

Here lies
dead eyes
Lilly White is surprised
but you're not on the guest list baby
general malaise
and a needy gaze
nothing wants anymore
nothing hurts anymore
when you're not
a second thought

Without being emotional
just going through the motions of
one big self sabotaging empty bitch
it’s scary to realize the reasons why
you wanna die
and that you would spare them of
the consequences
