Placation – September 22, 2021

Tear me down, by my side You stood And then you left Tell me what I am supposed to think, Do It was you Who broke me And built me up Not to be me But what you want Isn’t who I am any longer And here I sit Shocked into stillness On loop Begging … Continue reading Placation – September 22, 2021

Flabbergast of Love – September 20, 2021

Sometimes It hits me in the face Hard Knocking me out Offended At all she put in And the nothing She got out What is a legacy Without a name A whisper amongst The breeze Was that my job I’ve been carrying so long I’m bloated And ready to gush Set her free I will … Continue reading Flabbergast of Love – September 20, 2021

Lusting – September 11, 2021

The moments I feel you Closer to me Than I am to myself Are the wholest I have ever been It brings me A high No drug could touch And therefore I am an addict In your midst When you love me Like you do

September 13, 2021

Blowing through my mind The keys on a piano run The warm bows That fall softly On my strings Withdrawn And wondering I can’t tell you Where this will end But the rustling That happens Swallows me whole As we beat together

Missing – August 31, 2021

I wake up Somedays Missing her Beyond Anything That could be imagined Missing The days I learn little trinkets Of her existence Missing The delusion That keeps her perfect I will always long For someone I never knew And sometimes that is the hardest Bit of everything Missing the pride That might never have been … Continue reading Missing – August 31, 2021

Dreamsicle Hypocrisy – August 3, 2021

I swear I don’t Hold on To things Blinding Myself To letting Them go Never looking Over my shoulders Bounding into fields Leaving marks Picked up As I remember All I’ve lost Time and time again Things I’ve put down And smiled at Filling my belly Night after night Never enough Flying past you Always … Continue reading Dreamsicle Hypocrisy – August 3, 2021

Talking to you…The Capitol is Watching 7/28/21

This Olympics has me thinking (uh-oh). What a horribly sad, humiliating, eye opening, real, show of strength embodied by Simone Biles. Yeah, hold on, I know everyone’s talking about it, and it already seems almost old. But this, this thing she’s done is unheard of. Athletes don’t just train their a$$es off day in and … Continue reading Talking to you…The Capitol is Watching 7/28/21

Talking to you…have I shared too much 7/27/21

My “life feelings” are just that, something you can’t touch and fleeting. They’re mine. Selfishly, I blunder them. One after another. Letting them go, when all I want to do is hold the fuck on. It might feel good for a moment…but we all know the saying…then the moment is gone.

Singular – July 10, 2021

The inescapable longing Left Tightens in the chest and Sometimes escapes the lips Dreary Far beyond any day’s darkness Found At the end of a rural escape Bringing no solace It settles in your bones Turning you incapacitated At the most inopportune times Left all by yourself It’s a part of you now No other … Continue reading Singular – July 10, 2021

Mesmerizing – July 15, 2021

Soft And distant Full of something I am not How do they do it Smoothly Trespassing across the street Lights flying through the Empty sky Somewhere It’s fulfilling Suffocating The last bit of umpf I have Used To understand A life I do not live Because what else is the point If I cannot take … Continue reading Mesmerizing – July 15, 2021
