puzzled
such a beautiful thing we have
why do we kill each other
beauty is everywhere
and we turn it ugly
hate is winning
love is losing
so fucking
confusing

A Sexist Pig Getting What He Deserves
Chris walked into the bathroom.
Saw a woman's reflection in the mirror.
That yawn became a scream.

Touch
A touch can last
like the mark left
by a searing branding iron,
and every touch that follows
will burn through to the marrow,
leaving only aversion.

On Her Knees Crying Scarlet Tears
After leaving work,
Lisa saw a woman on
her knees crying scarlet tears.
Lisa lifted her
up and saw with shock that she
had no eyes before she lunged.

in a world of dictators

you just write it yourself

happiness runs
and loneliness spins
minds explode
while ants march
into your head
teapots whistle
don't drink the orange tea
no light gets in
if you close the door too tight
and loneliness spins
minds explode
while ants march
into your head
teapots whistle
don't drink the orange tea
no light gets in

in the café, he observes
seems like
those who start wars
lose in the end, no matter how
long it takes
for them to be served
I can wait

a fear of falling
positioned myself
where I thought the gap between the
train and the platform would be narrowest
escape I’ve ever had
