"Triangle"
Written and Read by Morgan Grace Blevins

He’s an upside down triangle, an upside down triangle hopelessly.
All thoughts pooled on the left side because he’s obtuse and isosceles and upside down. He thinks those thoughts over and over, deeper, because he is a serious triangle who knows what it’s like to be a real conscious triangle. But he’s mad at those thoughts sloshing in his left side because they’re always gurgling.

“Piss off” says the triangle.

He had fallen on his left side or had been kicked over. He wouldn’t put it past humans because they’ve never respected the ups and downs of triangles, the rights and lefts.

The triangle has a thick perimeter. His triangle mom called him big boned. It’s a little too thick he thinks, because nothing gets out of there, especially now that he’s upside down.

He is a serious triangle, and he knows his angles too well. He justifies them to himself. 100% I am isosceles says the triangle. It sloshes on his left side. He is full of these thoughts that he makes from the pool. But he can’t decide if they are true. His left side’s too full to tell.

He is an upside down triangle. A hopelessly analytical upside down triangle.

He wonders if there is a membrane on his longer side, the one up in the air, if his mind used to seep through that long side like a sponge, dripping into the grass.

He’s mad because he’s upside down. Actually the triangle is mad because he doesn’t have a membrane. Actually he’s mad because he’s not sexy enough. Actually it’s because of none of that and because he’s a conscious triangle with feelings pooled on his left side.

“Piss off” says the hopelessly upside down triangle.
