there are plenty of reasons
to fix my brain
after being told
by experts, family, and friends
that it is malfunctioning.

i realize this now,
and have tried to
fix it with power tools,
hammers, screwdrivers,
ratchets, glue, razorblades,
sleeping pills, heroin,
late night tv, text messages,
tears, cigarettes,
beef jerky, controlled breathing,
and epoxy,
but i can't
pinpoint what's wrong,
because shit just keeps
getting worse,
and it keeps ruining
other people's lives
so i painted
a smile on
my face to
try, and hide the problems.
