Jennifer’s room of disapprovals
Jennifer placating the room
Peopled by me
And my aspirations
Inervated into
Agitations
Bustling in
Lawrence back from Arabia
Sanded scalp
Skittery vowels
Skin battered into hide
‘I’ve placed the minimalists in the Lexus
In bags
Biodegradable of course’
‘Jennifer! Come see what’s happened
The humans have become unbearable to look at’ me loud
When you go
Why would you go slow
Our Jennifer darling
Quick in heels

I really enjoyed this poem, especially the voice of the persona!
