Que fais-tu
des fleurs que je t'offre ?
As-tu ta fête ?
Où rien ne va !
Tu fais courir le temps
derrière nulle part ?
Tu fais semblant d'avoir oublié
où veux-tu voler?
Tu suis cette rue
et fais le tour de l'asile.
Tu frappes à la porte...
tu laisses les fleurs
sur la dernière marche
plus haut.

the disappearing
the disappearing
I was finally able to go home from so many problems
of various kinds in a world, not at ease with itself.
I worried about her. She had been left alone and was
not of a social disposition.
As the plane came in for a landing, I wondered if she
sensed my nearness?
It was late, no busses were going to where I was going
booked into a hotel until morning.
On the bus, I was edgy; what if she had forgotten me?
I saw her playing with children outside the house
she didn’t see me when I called her name, she didn’t
hear...

Urgencies
To go or not to go
That may be a debatable question
In the greater scheme of things
It might mean
To want to summon the courage to go see the boss in regard to that raise
You want or think you deserve
And be prepared for that rejection.
It may entail a trip you really are not sure you wanna make
For who needs a sermon from that fat Know-it-all
But the Know-it-all who has the key you seek
Ya, it always involves hard choices
Decisions, Decisions, Decisions.
But if Nature calls
Then you no longer have much of a choice in the matter.

Every Win I Lose Something
Sitting on the corner of
fucks this sucks
and I don’t give a fuck avenue
trying to figure out when it became a game
to try and score points
as if we’re in competition
realising that in a constant struggle for one-upmanship
we pit ourselves against each-other
fighting to try and be the one on top
it saddens me
to put this much effort into sadness
but I wear the responsibility
of peeling back layers
trying to dig into the meat
until we tore each other apart
to hold handfuls of entrails ...

Broken People, Breaking Themselves
Jealousy in too high a dose
bends you over a table
the one you stub your toe on
then falls into
a moment you run on tangents
stitch together things
we drag around like anchors
hopes and dreams
things unwritten that never had a chance
but
I've staked my life on the affections
of vandalized women
more times than "I told you so's"
would dare dream of
she loves you fierce
hard and rough in the right places
a suicide bomber
smoking charred beauty

Waste of Energy
So much energy
You exert
Of keeping her home
But
Every time she leaves the house
Into another man’s arms
She goes
You exert
Of keeping her home
But
Every time she leaves the house
Into another man’s arms
She goes

Scorched Earth Syndrome
Some of us have to count things for anything to make sense
It started and ended with six words in the form of a question
one non confession
three or four acts of aggression
to fall face first into an out of control obsession
suddenly found myself
caught in a circle three
the red dwarf
the polymorph
and the All Seeing Eye
3 sides of a pyramid that didn’t see as much as it thought it did
It’s true
I did foresee the shit storm that would ensue
I’m not proud of it
but I’m also not afraid to admit
I’m a selfish...

WHEN THE PAIN GOES DEEPER
Why is it that you are just like those visions, that still continue to be awaken within me. Yet the deepness of my soul and mind screams in these silently dreams. Provoking pieces of evidences that is like opening a book once close. A book of the past lies coming back, from the deepness of the darkness of what is now fragments. As pieces of my heart and soul, but with broken tears still under the layers of layers of hurt and pain.That eventually become invisible to see, upon the surface of my skin hidden behind my eyes. For I loved you with all my heart, yet I was blindsided by your words....

After Child Support, Got Enough Left To Drink
The sweet taste of kerosene
and the draw of a hand rolled
cigarette
cold comforts of sad music
on the dancing machine
curl around my loss and try to nurse it
the way a mother clings to her stillborn
wishing there was a way to take it back
to undo harsh reality
and the lit match
but
burning bridges and crying over corpses
is a family tradition
another slug of the bottle
crushed the glass to feel it’s shards
slide into my hand
so I could hold its puckered flesh to the reader of palms
ask if my future...

Sad day for the US
So the GOP SCOTUS
Invalidates Roe versus Wade.
Amazingly sad.
Is SCOTUS bought and paid for
By the Evangelical right...
Just as they are bought and paid for
By the NRA in regards to guns?
Ok. The 2A, I know.
The US is increasingly becoming a very very very hard country.
I used to love to go and visit.
Not sure about that anymore.
