A fork, a knife and a spoon
My wife only wants me to spoon her when she's hammered
Any other time, she don't want me near
That's ok
I actually despise her and spooning
One night she came home incredibly drunk
She was all over the place
Stumbling, making no sense
Fell backwards into my cabinet
Breaking some heirloom figurines I had from my family
No apology, nothing
My blood was beginning to boil
I yelled at her, "GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY FACE!!!"
I was tired, so I went to bed
Few moments later she came into bed
She was frisky and...
Any other time, she don't want me near
That's ok
I actually despise her and spooning
One night she came home incredibly drunk
She was all over the place
Stumbling, making no sense
Fell backwards into my cabinet
Breaking some heirloom figurines I had from my family
No apology, nothing
My blood was beginning to boil
I yelled at her, "GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY FACE!!!"
I was tired, so I went to bed
Few moments later she came into bed
She was frisky and...

THE TASTE WAS DELICIOUS
I had often
thought about
how it would
taste, what
the texture
would feel
like in my mouth;
would it be
sweet, bitter,
or maybe salty.
I thought it
over and bought
a piece of octopus
from a street vendor;
to my surprise
The taste was delicious.
Have you ever
been surprised by
a new taste?

Breakfast
A blueberry bagel
Coupled with a cup of java
Make for the perfect
Start to my day

Coffee
Fresh Pot!
So hot it's...
...baked
like a munchie
a gently toasted
desert
delectable
to the senses
Oh caffeine!

Disorder
an ED is an
adaptable
disorder it
Truly fits in
many boxes
it's a flight
addiction
obsession
and a curse
i'm trying to
restore my
relationship
with food via
photography
capturing my
self with fruits
and veggies
create poetry
with my ED in
the lead role
use food as
a verb & play
with the words
using my curse
as a step to cure
adaptable
disorder it
Truly fits in
many boxes
it's a flight
addiction
obsession
and a curse
i'm trying to
restore my

and veggies
create poetry

4 intimacy
I could die
Not the chosen event
Cocktails on veranda preferable
Heavy air
Humid thoughts
Savigugon Blanc
Small plates
Dizzying
Consuming
Leading to
?

chicken dinner *
here
it is,
again
too close
to midnight,
i'm awake
and eating
cold potato
slices
that came
with my
chicken dinner
from earlier
in the day
maybe
i should
be
in bed
and dreaming
of more
luxurious
feasts,
but i
was raised
on
fried chicken
and potatoes.

I GOT KIDS TO FEED
Ooh that chronograph would look good on my wrist
Though I like it, it’s really a want and not a need
I know I could walk around the office and flaunt it
I have the money for it but dang it I got kids to feed!
I’ve been a hankering to go on a long vacation
Go to Pamplona and run with the bulls in the stampede
But I’m getting a little too old for these shenanigans
I’ve been dreaming of skydiving but I got kids to feed!
Though I’m in a good place as far as income is concerned
There was a point when my family had some tough times
I had...

Madame Butterfly
Fluttering gracefully in the air
carpet of colours on meadows
dance the flirty butterfly
sprinkling forth dusts of pheromones
with the kaleidoscope's grace
beguiling and seductive temptress
pulsating with bold and vibrant heat
the beating of wings as in heartbeat
As she kisses with delicate embrace
each blooms that tilt up in expectation
she kisses and drink life's juice
from the pretty blooms that beckon
flirty butterfly will forever be free
wings buoyed by the wind a joyful sight to see.

The Ecstasy of Gold II
Arrival from Heathrow Airport, England
—Atlantic City International Airport,
New Jersey, 1974, 03:00 Hours
The brown station wagon
bulleted southward
becoming a très grande vitesse
through sleeping suberbs and cities
Comets of street-lights
illuminated dirty windows
where I pretended to sleep
cradled in an incubator of glass—
a rusted, oil-leaking nest
There's no lullaby
like rubbered-asphalt
between dark routes
of small, uknown towns
cigarettes glowing
between parental...

The Look Of Lunch (leap into leap year!)
I need to book me some salmon rushtea
After all, it's leap year you know
And not just lunchtime!
People keep sayin' I should write more
They know the score...
But I'm not so sure!
I shoulda marked the occasion as...
THEMES CHAMPION
Something more permanent.
It just didn't cross my mind
Oh well!
There's more important stuff to worry about
Than this trivial nonsense, I guess
But it's how I cope
After all, it's leap year you know
And not just lunchtime!
People keep sayin' I should write more
They know the score...
But I'm not so sure!
I shoulda marked the occasion as...
THEMES CHAMPION
Something more permanent.
It just didn't cross my mind
Oh well!
There's more important stuff to worry about
Than this trivial nonsense, I guess
