Do you remember the days
When you heard the radio play
We are the world
And “One” on Bono’s tour
We just wanna have fun
Was chased by I wanna dance with somebody
Are those days done
Hello anybody!
A Smooth Criminal was played all-day
Now we have one in the white house
Hip hip hooray
Yea quiet like a church mouse
I remember when the wall came down
The shock and awe of it all
I remember when another house came down
It was crazy. We knew who started that ball
There was a singer named George...

Stop Smiling
I
Am
A
Wreck
Bruised and discarded like those old ships
You found me and now what?
Why do you smile?
Everyone passes me by and not give a damn
Not …A…Damn!
You smiled at me
You reached for me and…and
What am I supposed to do?
You don’t understand
I’m a wreck
Your light hurts me
Stop! Smiling!
“Beautiful”
Me?
Beautiful?
Does he not see the bruises I carry?
This eye is black and blue
I did not fall
STOP..SMILING!
It’s starting to rain now
I can feel it...

filler up
my loneliness echoes inside me
cruelly deceptive within my hollows I fill the empty space with you
but you are not mine to have
and I wonder, would you fill these places if things were different
seeking ever seeking for a way to cope
Holding my breath underwater is my life
I know I can't hold it long
I'm on razor blade tight rope walking
Anxiety is getting worse by the day
my hold is tenuous at best
The worst has me wondering how long I can do this
Will every day be torture
hold my breath sobriety
take a...

Fragile
It seems so fragile,
this intangible thing we share.
Or maybe it’s just that I feel
brittle
each time I encounter it.
I’m compelled to turn away
put it on a high shelf
where my clumsy hands can’t reach
to observe fondly
remotely
on days when I feel strong.
But on the other days…
I want to caress all its surfaces
perceive its smooth comfort
despite the risk of breakage and sharp corners.
Such a delicate thing,
this ethereal connection –
a vulnerable sanctuary.

Digital Madness
I'm locked in an insane reality
Like a TV or smartphone I can't turn off
Sometimes I want to rip my face off and lose my identity
Hack open a hole in my rib-cage and get the fuck out!

deadlines all around me

deadlines all around me
deadlines all around me
feral pit bulls of the runaway
psyche off the leash

resurrected in the 30s

roam with intentions unclear
but problematic

empty
emptiness ensues when it's quiet
A lonely feeling cradles me
Something I can't escape
a big difference from the fullness I feel at other times
When I hear so clearly
Then blank nothingness
My soul is no longer connected
Earthbound, I can't touch the sky
fleeting feeling to believe
It all seems like a dream
My being rises so high
just to crash into my mortality
leaving me feeling all too human
a pressing moment
With all doors barred
With thoughts, I can't hack it
careening on edge ...

Question
Is a poem enough
is it everything
is it almost everything
is it what you were waiting for
does a poem take away
does a poem fit like a glove to keep quiet
to erase the cold
to stay and stop the wind
to be free from searching for you
is a poem enough
does a poem reach
your ears with the wind
will it be, will it be, will it be
will it sit down to talk to you
will it talk without taking a seat
is it, is a poem enough
is it everything
is it almost everything
is it what you were waiting for ...

Oh See Dee
The more we repeat the actions, the more we improve
My rituals are with me, a routine of obsessions
Already the thoughts
They dominate me
The voices tell me to be more aggressive
Perfection – symmetry – repetition – beliefs
Compulsion – cycle - anxiety – disease

mind the drop
Rain turns wood to sponge
I don't notice until the rot gives way
and I
half fall through the decking
Times slows
and then speeds back up
as my hand finds the railing
unintentionally
I breathe hard
my body like jelly
balanced on one trembling leg
as I stare down the two metre drop
that could have taken me
Adrenaline masks the damage
of scratches from ankle to knee
and the way my back twisted
I don't know it yet
but my whole body
will pay for this misstep
...

cowered but not a coward
18 of 30
today...
...is not okay
I'm firing only blanks
struggling to process...
...words...thoughts...life...
walking to another room
& when I arrive
forgetting...why...
starting a list
not remembering what I'd planned to write
I just want to curl in a ball
stare at the wall
& let the day pass me by
catch a cab for tomorrow
skipping the morass of now
but...
...since that isn't an option...
one foot...then the other
keeping it moving
I'm doing the best I can
