in any given
situation
there is a
betterthanlikely
chance i will
make it weird

sometimes it is
catching some
secondhand vibes
seeing through
the facade to
the awkwardness

but just as much
i say the oddest
possible thing
because i lack
the concept to
simply think them

i am a chaos gremlin
disturbing the sanctity
of stranger’s days
with my off kilter
approach to navigating
the insanity around me

saying the quiet part
inbarelycontrolledanger
rather than choking
it down to form another
cancerous bezoar
to be dealt with later
