Analysis of Untitled

Brittany Wilson 1988 (Milwaukee, WI)



I fell in love with a rainbow on a rainy day
& sat on the edge of the dock of the bay
With a teddy bear after i milked a cow
After a crow spotted me & I'm scared right now.

I slipped in a way & fell too hard
On my knees to the ground (with no kneepads & no regard)
i push myself up & dust off my clothes
Because the person who did it is someone i loathe.

Often at times, when i'm alone
I stare out my window & into space
To ask myself about toned base paint
With a faint hint of some taint.
