new year (same issues)
here
it is,
a brand
new year,
and
unfortunately
i carried
with me
now
the same
pain that
i had
hoped
to leave
behind
with the
old year.

each day hurts
unfortunately,
i feel
just as
i look,
the sun
comes up,
hours pass
and then
the moon
waves,
another
morning
and things
haven't
changed,
my body
in pain,
i feel
it there
to greet
me each
new day.

too tired
i wake up
each morning
with more
physical pain,
(except
when i
sleep for
a few
hours during
my day),
than i don't
want to
continue
enduring,
ailments
it seems
i inherited
from my
mother,
and knowing
that the
government
refuses to
compensate
me fully
does not
help an
already bad
situation.

my scars
my scars
run much
deeper
than any
someone
will see
on the
surface.

HALFWAY THERE (I)-(original draft) (East Flagship Hotel Pier Jetty, Galveston Island Texas; 1-29-1997)
i took a trolley
to the beach
walked out to the end of a jetty
gazed numbly out over
this vast gulf of mexico s
seemingly endless horizon
then silently thought to myself
halfway there
to the beach
walked out to the end of a jetty
gazed numbly out over
this vast gulf of mexico s
seemingly endless horizon
then silently thought to myself
halfway there

disabling the sky
what if
someone
disabled
the sky,
no more
morning sun,
no happy,
moving clouds,
no rainbows
stretching
out,
the blue
is gone,
there
is nothing,
but i
do not
have
to watch
the sameness
from my
disabled frame,
my mind
will bring
back
the sun,
the clouds,
the rainbows,
and the blue,
everything
will be
here again.

i cannot love myself
where is this
section
of night
that found
me sitting,
it began
to fall
over my head,
working
downward,
covering
my senses,
to misunderstand
the hour,
this is
the hours
of lovers,
for lovers
convenience,
i hide my face,
i hide
completely,
i can give
my love away,
but not
to myself.

Dissociated Games
Flinches
And spasms
That swallow
Me whole
The zaps of
Electrical jolts
Tears shooting
Vertical out
Of my eyes
Out of my mind
Where has the time
Gone, I flutter away
Can’t make
Myself stay
Breaking out
Of my cage
I dissociate
I dissociate
I dissociate
And spasms
That swallow
Me whole
The zaps of
Electrical jolts
Tears shooting
Vertical out
Of my eyes
Out of my mind
Where has the time
Gone, I flutter away
Can’t make
Myself stay
Breaking out
Of my cage
I dissociate
I dissociate
I dissociate
