i took a nap this afternoon
and thought that
i was playing footsies
with someone.
and i never turned to see
who the person was.

i only saw the back of her head
so it could've been a walking fish
with a wig and a headdress.

well, she, assuming--
was wearing a mantle
and blue jeans
with long hair.

but i don't understand
what this thing even means
except maybe
i should've taken my socks off
before i went to sleep?

eight times I fell in love with him

un I fell in love sitting on a cliff overlooking my whole town, all the buildings below shining like little pastel boxes in the late afternoon light. beneath late-october leaves he guided me gently into my first kiss like he was directing water-starved flowers to a rainstorm. when our lips at last brushed, I felt him smile against my mouth almost secretly, as if he were surprised by his own happiness, and I knew I'd found a heart that would play well with my own. deux in the pouring rain, he walked beside me with his nice blue collared shirt held high above us as a makeshift umbrella. I held him around the waist and he kissed me twice wit

a situation in which i do not survive

i was a lake whipped into a fever pitch, a localised hurricane in the wake of something greater. the world was ending and i dreamt of you while it was still turning, a mess of bodies and kisses. i dreamt of you still when it ended, a slow dance of crooked smiles and offshore eyes. you kept me close and if i was ever a source of happiness or preoccupation or horror for you, i could let go.

if i hadn't had the drunk luck to meet you

i’d have married every bedside witch from here to east dallas i’d have glistened like a worm to their mescaline psalms i’d have mired in sinuous wineskin, repentant spectra i’d Om along in cooing groups, babble with freethinkers all my endeavors would be gas station derelicts all of my wrongs would be quasi-continuous even the over-sought moon would protest and i wouldn’t recognize one half of the universe

Ashes on a Grave

Hand rolled cigarettes, yellowed fingertips liver overworked, waiting outside in the cold sunshine reception desk, awaiting request, clipboard and swinging hips "This is your mother?" Yeah, that's mine nurses with red ruby lips, stomp embers out, it'll all be fine swallow the cup of bitter pills, fifty second visit of 1959 Weekly, my mother gets to see me ever since I became a made man I made time dementia makes her lose track, she's old and weakly she doesn't remember her own five sons, in her mind I never did a crime I'm paying all her bills, but family doesn't come freely she thinks I'm my father, a deadbeat I never knew, she's staying here on my dime! A man who failed to raise me, that's what I get, every tender moment ends with her asking for her husband throwing the knife into my heart like spit I kill myself to drive out here, to channel the dead go back and channel violence onto any poor mook's head break bones, break safes, break bottles and then break bread and I mean

Daddy Please

Daddy, don't lie to me, I wanna know Where is she hiding, and why did she go? Daddy, don't lie to me, please, pretty please It's like I can hear her voice within the breeze. Daddy, don't lie to me, where did she run? Daddy, I know all the things you have done. Daddy, don't lie to me, I've seen her scars Hidden from me like the faraway stars. Daddy, don't tell me, I don't wanna hear I'm hoping these thoughts are just worries, just fears. Daddy, don't tell me, I can't stand the facts I just wanna think this is some silly act. Daddy, I love you, you know this is true But honestly, why do you do what you do? Daddy, I saw you when you pushed h

cross of the open wound, i've been on the deathbed. i have pleaded with your angers and made peace with the red. around the corner you are listening, two steps of isolated waist. craze me with one grasp in lace. look on your facet harmonizes with the falling reign. purple with prose like it matters to the vagrant. scarlet 'round the ankles and sunlit neck bit. your sway makes moonpace look hectic. eclipse me, sweet as the dusk. cold as the dim fog of lust. slow as the silk of touch. i've been on the deathbed, drunk. crossing off sins with full plunge. dripping and scurrilous with each expunge. faculties harmed and waning, your thrust a

choker

please do not ask me to keep you, blurry and greedy and bleeding, don't let my weakness bring shame. bark christened with a new frame cracks with the terror of a new day buried. hold me like cherry blossoms keep our secrets tucked neatly within, no grins though the knowledge spreads thin. ivy on the dashboard, the leather of the backseat, the smooth, wet metal of the engine. when you make moves there are sparks from your crushed bones rustling like the leaves that you're leaving behind, hurried. please let your desperate grave of a mouth have the power to be kind to my name.

epitaph

the girl i did not run over looks at me with eyes that say that i am part of the problem, when i could have been her solution, looks at me like she’s blaming me for swerving away, like she’s measured every one of her steps from her door to the curb, and i am the one thing she failed to account for. i almost double back to try and tell her all the same things that i have been told but i do not. her feet are too heavy, by now. her stomach too hollow. she does not need more empty words to swallow, she does not need stop signs or yield signs or ‘for the love of god think of everyone you are leaving behind’ signs. i do no

abstract humor odd sad sarcasm

have you ever met that person who uses humor as a defense mechanism to avoid vulnerabilities?
yeah, i'm not that guy, i'm too depressing to be funny. (oh, wait. self-deprecation is a thing. still doesn't count.)

i didn't even wear socks when i took a nap today.

_{_{good days at school, for some reason,
equate to bad nights after.
and i wish i was still in school.
what is wrong with me?
