Transcript of diptix by Alexandra Naughton
Getting myself off thinking about you dreaming about me.
I’m thinking a lot about being a girl on the internet.
Eating too much skin = skinny. Shirking too much flesh = fleshy.
I want to think about my body in architectural terms.
Having thoughts, ideas, and writing them down. Recording them because they sound good in my head or I want to remember them. Poems are not constructions but reflections. I have a thought, idea, and I write it down. I show it to you and call it a poem.
I don’t like poetry that comes with an explanation.
I want to know what it means when you text me flattery.
Listening to a song that makes me think about you and texting you that I am listening to it so maybe you will listen to it too.
I ask you questions I don’t want to know the answers to because I think I know the answers and having you confirm doesn’t benefit either of us.
This is me harnessing my sexuality for a lukewarmlucrative literary career.

This is the thirst day of my life.
It’s like we go through the motions of hanging out together. We make a plan, we go there, but all we want to do the whole time is just go back home so we can get back to ignoring each other.
It’s like bringing sand to your butthole.
Virgin Mary Virgin Mary Virgin Mary Virgin Mary Virgin Mary Virgin Mary Virgin Mary Virgin Mary.
And thick folds of flesh like a spiral ham.
