On the way to buy apples - with Ms_LaCarte
My neck broke from trying
to put my head on your shoulder
as the sun set on the last day
of our new beginning
Fuck’s sake, what is she doing?
Not the shoulder, that takes too long.
I’m already late. God damn it.
I need a diversion, shit…and an excuse.
The sun sweat my resolve from the
bottom of my boobs
and today I want to sit and think
and not drive myself insane

habits die harder in nightmares
It was like one of those
cigarette dreams where you smoke
(or drink or break your
sobriety)
and get pissed at
yourself
but do it anyway
Filthy habits always seem
to die
harder in dreams
So it was with us
last night
We stood on
opposite sides
of a cursed door
foreheads pressed
eyes closed
palms flat
as if we could
transmogrify
the sick regret
to anything

Suffocated
You were
rare air
in my lungs
I lie
vacant-eyed
as my chest

Review and remediation
I closed the thesis
I’d been peer reviewing
stood and stretched
and got a cup of
coffee before I
sat down to
meatier work
I put on reading
glasses
The type with the
blue filter coating
so I wouldn’t get
a headache from
complicated
reading
They make me look like
a sexy librarian
when I put my hair in a bun
But my hair is down as
I analyze the work I
failed to analyze
correctly,
and my
entire exigence
is skewed while ...

Broken patellae
As the walls of your
stone shelter heart
collapsed on me
I hit my knees
and begged you
to
Tell me you’re sorry
Tell me you did that shit
Tell me I mattered.
But you told me
you didn’t
need
this
shit
stone shelter heart
collapsed on me
I hit my knees
and begged you
to
Tell me you’re sorry
Tell me you did that shit
Tell me I mattered.
But you told me
you didn’t
need
this
shit
