the silence of dirt
I dream of the silence
of dirt
count the years behind
on an abacus
the days ahead on my
fingers
slowly
slowly
the ravens gather
the music of bones
sings
slowly
slowly
and I will
follow
of dirt
count the years behind
on an abacus
the days ahead on my
fingers
slowly
slowly
the ravens gather
the music of bones
sings
slowly
slowly
and I will
follow

I never understood poetry
Now
Words pour out of my brain
Onto the page
Desires
Fears
Wants
Insecurities
Emotion
I can’t stop it
Don’t want to stop it
Feeling like I am becoming human

Thirty two
I feel you slowly
erasing from
every line
almost as
if you're living
half dead &
half alive,
all I wonder
about lately
is whether
or not you
half cried,
perhaps
my only sin
is knowing
my feet
carry
on.

Your ears believed it never mattered
that my words
became less
everywhere
we travelled,
how my throat
began to swell
into autumn
leaves
sailing slow
down every
park river
we walked
how lungs—
yearned to
drown down
by the water.

The Poet's Lover
You’ll become nothing more than
A sequence of words
The day you leave me
For I am a poet
And you are my lover.
And our heartache
Will be my muse.

I see.
Do you see.

a little touch of salvation
mid-day
pull tight the
shades
turn day into
night
close your
eyes
rest
escape
dream
don't
dream
just be
still
and you will
feel it
a little touch
of
salvation
pull tight the
shades
turn day into
night
close your
eyes
rest
escape
dream
don't
dream

still
and you will

Please Tell Me What Do You Want!
She opened her eyes and found
herself tied tightly
to a picnic table and
with a gag in her
mouth before she saw the
ones who abducted her.

coming cold
I let the
barbed wire
grow
all around
me.
Now it's all that
shows
in the sunlight
Can't skip here,
not free-footed,
and
Forget-Me-Nots
don't even bother
to face
the way that
wind
blows
barbed wire
grow
all around
me.

Your plan is to make me cry—
Hydration matters

Murder Of The Heart
Murder of the heart, /
seething, blinding, angry pain, /
the rage of the gods.

Waited For Her Lover
One night, Debra sat
on the beach and waited for
her lover to arrive there.
When he finally
showed up, they hugged and kissed each
other right there on the beach.
