about

There's something on my mind.

lyrics

It’s another week in the Caribbean.
I’m sitting away from the noise pollution and blaring kazoos, browsing the deepest recesses of Google for scanlations of whatever manga is on my mind.. And my father still has no idea that I’ve got a plantar wart somewhere on my foot. I told you those sandals felt weird, but you never listened.
A typical day would be to relax at the beach, completing printouts of the cryptic crosswords as if I know every trick in the book.
He booked so many excursions and they were all cancelled due to rain.
When will he realize that I’ve gone six years in a row crossing the same chicane
And heard the same words, the same songs, the same taunts
In the same inflections that scared me the first time and beyond
What’s everyone on tonight? Marijuana and Shirley Temples.
Now dad and his new wife ask me to join WhatsApp for a game. Me and the boys reluctantly do the challenge. When we get to the hotel suite, I nonchalantly decline the prize money.
It’s not a fucking Millennium Problem, and I’m not Grigori Perelman.
If you want a true analysis of my thoughts about the week, answer this: why didn’t you buy that SPF 0 sunscreen in 2013?
And all the while an amateur theatre troupe has got all the impersonators you could imagine
I want to ride back home on a Segway or rented ATV
Because I’m tired and emotional
What this family needs is a break from tradition.
