Your favorite color is green.
I see the leaves and think of you
thanks to my friend, who dared
to ask you what I could not.
She handed me a piece
of the puzzle that you are
but I'm still trying to find
the corner pieces of your mind

Falling backwards with pride
Was I led here to master isolation? Are these tests torturing me so that I could breathe stranded? Are we here to become cave-dwelling monks?
If life is not communication. If life is not love... what is this realm?
I think, maybe.. just maybe the hermit within me has been misled. Solitude, as cosmic and perfect it is, requires the same old balance. Out of control, wholeness crumbles to isolation, paranoia, sickly yellow street lights...
Too much rain and grey sky grab you by the throat. Your head spins longing for oxygen, and you start to feel appreciation for the light you...

Nothing incommon
Things are losing meaning fast. I understand nothing is made to last. Infinity is too vast to let you cling to the past.
The world of consumerism is artificial, as our perceptions of today
built from projections of another time. Our experience is polluted. Overwhelmed with empty kicks of dopamine. Our connections disconnected
Dull gossip and reliving - of reliving of the sleep.
On Friday nights we're all drunken sheep. Stuck in the screen of someone else's dream. These ghosts are losing meaning in my being.
Losing fucks to give fast. I won't put on my make up for...

Exhaustion's Halo
I’ll see you in another life, when we, are both cats.” Vanilla Sky
..
Where to begin,
That’s always the most difficult thing
Breathe
I voice searched Google
For actors I liked,
When we met, just as many
Dead,
As wilting
I drag my foot
In the surf, while the sun is
Ferrying children,
In a basket
I guess I’ll start by saying,
I don't know what to say,
Your emotions are a thunderhead
My meanings
Get lost in

yes? no?
he didn't ask, just removed my specs,
i didn't want him to,
he removed my dress, didn't ask,
i didn't want him to,
as for the rest, he didn't ask
i didn't want him to.
i didn't want him to,
he removed my dress, didn't ask,

Going out
I sat alone at the table waited on by a lab technician in a hazmat suit.
The kind of situation that would seem normal
if I was ordering weapons-grade uranium to-go.
His muffled voice could barely cut through the triple layered protection
designed to keep him immune to even the wrath of god.
A few awkward chuckles and invisible faux-smiles later he was on his way
to the reactor to retrieve my lunch.
I notice the only other person bold enough to brave the new world
like me a few tables to my right.
His gaze is sharp and full of intent....

Camera Obscura
I’ve a friend who told me that
Technique
Lessens the honest
Organic
Intimacy
Of writing
I guess I can see that
We tend to think
Of language
In terms of lexicons,
Compiled and
Agreed
Upon, by
Communal
Order
But
Within these syllabic
Confines
I can tell you,
That I remember
My great grandmother’s hands
Were chitinous
As a scarab
Beetle,
Pale as marble
Shot through with
Petrichor
Veins of
Ice
Blue,
Hard as
The unearthed...

30 Years
Pain of misunderstanding her mind continues for three decades
Sorry IS the excuse of mistakes made, hers or otherwise
Determined to forever be denied death's embrace over and over
Maybe someone out there can interpret her motive to endure
A heavy search continues years ongoing for knowledge why
The pages closed, the chapters completion, at quests end
All hope is gone, lost, but still living, exhaustion pursues
Without asking or without knowing, you exist in the now
Paths have been crossed, new trails...
