The Book Nook Chronicles

Poem inspired by Michelle Zauner’s Crying in H Mart

Hell-bent on destroying her perfect world
I was delirious with secrecy.

In the vacuum of my disinterest,
using MS Paint,
I had glimpsed the life of an artist.

Bonded together by a deep, 
inexpicable loneliness 
and AOL messenger,
a pained vibrato breaks —

I've just never met someone like you.
