THEN YOU WERE THERE
I was twelve years old
and very confused,
trying to comprehend the word you just said,
"my names Pat, i'm your dad",
shocked, frozen
in an explosion of tears
then you hugged me and i asked
"where have you been all these years",
you tried to explain
you have been looking for me
since you found out my name

you tried to explain
you have been looking for me

Ball Tickler, Cow-ard?
Does it ever make you laugh
as it brushes on your balls
That tail between your legs
Does it get
CUMBERSOME
at all?
Does it ever make you laugh
as it brushes on your balls
That tail between your legs
Does it get
CUMBERSOME
at all?
floating above
the rusted landscape of chagrin
replete with the stench of dead
and the scurry of scavengers
in the hot white noon of late summer
amidst gripping talons flapping wings
waxen discarded innards
i yearn for
the desolate yellow moon
a blood red moon
lifeless moon
dangling mangled mashed squashed
may be
because it is
passive
blind
beautiful
unlike anything
i am you are we have
despite those 21 grams
despite everything
.
