just rip it off already
she called me one night
outta nowhere
said she got my number from my aunt
{that's a whole other fucked up ball of wax right there}
& did I know how to reach him
she was desperate
any day now she was expecting
{...his...twins...}
not at all surprised
I sighed
listened to her tell how he'd tried to shoot her
shaking my head in disbelief
because even then...she stayed
abuse is a crushing iron fist
I get it

as she sobbed about how he vanished

Parched
Satiate my
Thirst
Replace it
With a
Hunger
A lust
Skin deep
I can
Bear the
Hunger
I cannot
Bear the
Longing
I cannot
Claw it
Out of
My veins
I can
Sleep to
Escape the
Hunger
But
When I
Sleep
I still
Dream
Of
You
I know
You’ve let
Me go
But I
Still
Feel
You
There
Thirst
Replace it
With a
Hunger
A lust
Skin deep
I can
Bear the
Hunger
I cannot
Bear the
Longing
I cannot
Claw it
Out of
My veins
I can
Sleep to
Escape the
Hunger
But
When I
Sleep
I still
Dream
Of
You
I know
You’ve let
Me go
But I
Still
Feel
You
There

Finis Patior
Finis Patior’
Roughly meaning “I suffer the end”.
Nostalgia for a fresh wound.
I feel it as I sign my name in the corner of my artwork.
In the drive home from a day with friends.
In the credits after a movie.
In goodbyes.
In dial tones.
In freshly torn presents.
In a dream faded to obscurity.
In the epilogues of books.
In the bows after a play or musical.
The rush of realization,
That it’s over.
An empty space left within me.
A vacancy that throbs and fills with blood.
It exists...

Solace of a Broken Being
Hello sunshine
That glimmering smile
To help me see
No harm in dreaming
Of better days
Better ways
as I
Climb naked to the mountain top
No shame, balls out
Feel this emptiness
this pain, while I
live with full intent
Everything/nothing to give
Everything/nothing to get
...so be it
That glimmering smile
To help me see
No harm in dreaming
Of better days
Better ways
as I
Climb naked to the mountain top
No shame, balls out
Feel this emptiness
this pain, while I
live with full intent
Everything/nothing to give
Everything/nothing to get
...so be it

Atoms
There’s a 1 in an 8 billion chance,
That if you stick your hand in the wall,
You’ll go between atoms and your hand will go right through
I used to think that was a huge number,
An impossible chance
Until I reached for you to stay,
And you kept walking,
My hand fades through yours.
That if you stick your hand in the wall,
You’ll go between atoms and your hand will go right through
I used to think that was a huge number,
An impossible chance
Until I reached for you to stay,
And you kept walking,
My hand fades through yours.

Freedom
I sit with the wall that blocks us all,
The wall of pain, shame, heartbreak, guilt,
The vines of self sabotage and barriers covering the brick work
Our bodies feel the turmoil of hitting our heads against this wall
My parents done this, my partner done that, I should have done this, why did I do that
The armour of martyrdom and the thin veil of victim hood keeps us sitting with that wall
But what if we stood back from that wall, what if we changed the channel on the programming, tapped out of the endless maze, the tactical virtue of those at the big tables ...
The wall of pain, shame, heartbreak, guilt,
The vines of self sabotage and barriers covering the brick work
Our bodies feel the turmoil of hitting our heads against this wall
My parents done this, my partner done that, I should have done this, why did I do that
The armour of martyrdom and the thin veil of victim hood keeps us sitting with that wall
But what if we stood back from that wall, what if we changed the channel on the programming, tapped out of the endless maze, the tactical virtue of those at the big tables ...

Reflections
Night and Day has gone
Love lingers, purgatory
Shifting the season
Isolated crimson hearts
Horizons await the path
Love lingers, purgatory
Shifting the season
Isolated crimson hearts
Horizons await the path

What Happened to August?
Oh, Leo
such potential
mind brilliant with your pencil
no stencil
dreams and ideas
that float away
you never made them
residential
Oh, Leo
how I would bleed
love's passion isn't
all that I need
I wasn't late, I simply
never arrived I was
stuck in your stagnancy
like a vice
Couldn't you have stayed with me?
Baby, stay with me
I'd lead you through the trenches
guard your senses
show you how the path goes
watch all your budding and growth
I'd brush off...

I wanna rise again
take my starless
darkest world
and wrap me
in your mulberry soul
my tears are
really delightful
if you will taste it,
N yaa I have opened
myself wide, just try
to be a saviour
don't break my walls,
just want to be a friend
I have accepted
all your offers
nd have made
no demands,
just treat me
with respect.....
the pills I'm
taking will
probably take me
closer to death,..
just suggest me
is it easier to fly
from frozen pain

Middle Earth
Sometimes the earth quakes
shakes things up
moves things around
creating, shifting roads
each one different
just like arthritic fingers
Each winding path
filled with spastic water
daring me to dive
daring me to drive
against the waves
against the cars
crashing into me
over and over
each quake
making me work
digging deeper into
Middle Earth
looking for middle ground
the color of white clover
striving for an agreement
signing the year's end...
shakes things up

over and over
each quake
making me work
digging deeper into
Middle Earth
looking for middle ground
the color of white clover
striving for an agreement

Different Circles
We're just steps away from each other
But it feels a thousand miles
I can almost touch you now
But I can't reach you
We seem to move in different circles
That barely overlap
It seems a long long way
From where we started
Are we even trying anymore?
Or have we given up and moved along?
Is it worth the effort of reaching out to you?
Or are you gone a million miles away?
Am I just a long day late?
And do we really care
Anymore?
I don't feel like walking in the rain
I don't feel like being depressed again
I could...
But it feels a thousand miles
I can almost touch you now
But I can't reach you
We seem to move in different circles
That barely overlap
It seems a long long way
From where we started
Are we even trying anymore?
Or have we given up and moved along?
Is it worth the effort of reaching out to you?
Or are you gone a million miles away?
Am I just a long day late?

shattered
I'm looking back
things you said
& what you didn't
realizing
how much more powerful
was your silence
I don't give compliments
but you deserve them
did I
really
they felt so beautiful
caressing my fragility
it was the juxtaposition
that threw me
to be so loved
& so abandoned
shoved into a glass box
dark with self-doubt
clouded with anxiety
while you sat
just beyond reach
swirling the ice in your tumbler
watching me
silently
