I Digged It
When I found myself
In a deep hole
I did the only thing
I knew to do-
I stopped digging
In a deep hole
I did the only thing
I knew to do-
I stopped digging

recovery runs through our morgue
KT tape and sheer ugly will
hold me together
after five hard miles,
and I’m low on both
as my thigh quivers to
keep my knee under me
I stop to water
a tree with
forehead sweat and
angst-filled
swear words
reveling in
my weakness.
A dead person’s
sinew is screwed
into my new knee,
and, fuck if some days
I can't feel the
cadaver’s ghost
asking for it back
My lips stick to my teeth
as my leg shakes.
I didn’t bring...
hold me together
after five hard miles,
and I’m low on both
as my thigh quivers to
keep my knee under me
I stop to water
a tree with
forehead sweat and
angst-filled
swear words
reveling in
my weakness.
A dead person’s
sinew is screwed
into my new knee,
and, fuck if some days
I can't feel the
cadaver’s ghost
asking for it back
My lips stick to my teeth
as my leg shakes.

Chasing A Ghost
This pressing need of mine
Holding on to yesterday
Why does it feel
So much like now?
You dog my dreams
It seems so real
Time is ticking
My mind is tricking me
Into believing I am
As young again as
I was then when
times were sweet
And we had
A hot thing going on
When I'm in my right mind
I know you weren't
The best man for me
And I wish I could
Stop this madness
Forget about you 'cause
This feels a whole lot
Like I'm chasing a ghost
Holding on to yesterday
Why does it feel
So much like now?
You dog my dreams
It seems so real
Time is ticking
My mind is tricking me
Into believing I am
As young again as
I was then when
times were sweet
And we had
A hot thing going on
When I'm in my right mind
I know you weren't
The best man for me
And I wish I could
Stop this madness
Forget about you 'cause
This feels a whole lot
Like I'm chasing a ghost

Heart to heart
Those little hurts that keep us pushed apart –
it isn’t you that triggers that emotion:
a family heirloom, passed from heart to heart.
The loaded words and silences that smart,
perceived rejection causing such commotion --
old memories that keep us pushed apart.
The monster feelings soaring off the chart,
pulling us deeper in a cold, dark ocean --
an ancient trauma, passed from heart to heart.
When little things make reasoning depart
and distrust spreads through veins like poison potion, ...
it isn’t you that triggers that emotion:

a gift
do not
bring
yourself as
a gift
to me,
give me
the chance
to
unwrap you,
then take
it back.

The Lady Blue ( The Big Break-up)
Gary had a big mad on and wouldn't listen when I told him nothing happened between me and Joe that afternoon. In the end he softened some but made me promise that I would tell him if Joe ever made a serious play for me.
So things went along the same as before for a while but my relationship with Gary was strained. I had grown fond of Joe but I still loved Gary.
And then things got really messy because Gary suspected that I was sleeping with Joe though it just wasn't true. I was not able to convince him otherwise and he eventually let me go once again.
Joe jumped...

Opposites
Love’s Hate's
gentle touch enraged strikes
embraces thrashes
the connection. the affection.
Love Hate
is wounded, is laughing,
scared, cruel,
and confused. and amused.
Opposites
stemming
from the same
place.
