I’ll meet you there
my tears burn
your mangled
thumb as you
gently cup
my cheeck this
last time
last
time
our foreheads pressed,
eyes closed
whispering
I’m sorry
like a mantra from
both mouths
my hands are fists
in your shirt
deformed to the
taste of holding on
to something
we let die
a few times back
and I’m sorry
this time
because I want to
fold in your arms
like a...

blasphemed
the pellucid
glow of the
motel light
creases your
face
and you look
like the fallen god
I used to worship
shoulders curled
in the pervading glow
as if your throat-slitting,
fuck talk harmed you
most
you left your mark
on me
you certainly did that.
ribbons of my skin
decay in your nail beds
and there’s a hopeful
glint in the far left
of your cornea
as if you hold hope
while my flesh
molds in a pile
next to your...

Intrusive thoughts
I was on the top
of a Civil War fort
with no guardrails
as the Georgia
sky shone cold
blue sun at my
wind-chapped face
I looked over the side
and spent the next
10 minutes imagining
if I accidentally
cannonballed off
the ramparts
to the
grass/cement/tour guide
below
Intrusive thoughts
Brain burps
little blips of
cerebral gas
and tonight
we broke the
bed frame
then put
the mattress
on the floor
to sleep

That knock on my broken screen door
The neighbors
sit on broken
lawn chairs
as I run screaming
down our dirt road
throwing empty
beer cans
at the car you
stole to
leave me
And they offer me
sympathetic
glares and shots
of whisky
while taking in
the green-stick
break on my heart
(I fell down the stairs)
the two purple
fist marks
on my soul
(I ran into a wall)
And the missing
patches of
self worth
that looked
like they were
yanked out ...

Come back when you learn sign language
I flip through a
women’s magazine
I bought at a
Walmart
and discover that …
Huh.
Seaweed milkshakes
are the new superfood.
How about that
And look up
to see
you with
cock in your hand
Baby.
Listen.
My cunt
might be willing to
hear you out if you
shoved your hand
wrist deep
and signed
“I’m sorry”
until your
skin pruned
and that’s
the only part
of me you
took seriously.

And yet
You fucked me over like
nothing mattered
while I stood like
a Valkyrie over
your body
ready to
dick kick
anyone
who wanted to hurt you.
But now I’m the one
who wants to hurt you.
So I’ll step
into an embrace
I use to think was sacred
long enough for
you to smell my
shampoo and the
Bath and Body Works

Taxonomy
You correctly identified me.
You showed you
weren’t afraid to
lose me
lose us.
And you showed
what I am,
who I am to you.
* * *
I agree.
* * *
I fucking agree.
I am nothing.
and nobody
of importance

Surviving The Storm
you were a dervish of unintelligible words
and projectiles
from the moment I stepped through the door
a tornado of frenzy
your allure hiding nervous disorders
as if you’re waiting for me to blow up
the world
scamper off into the night to leave
you scraping through desolation and rubble
like last time
the time before
I understand
so I let the plate you threw hit me
leaving a spray of ceramic and
a trickle of red to run down my cheek
as a mockery of tears
the shaker hit my shoulder
then the wall...

a saw blade to the guts
The first time I
kissed your bleeding
knuckles,
was because you punched
a steel wall
when I called you
a liar
and I apologized
and huddled
against your
side
desperate
to feel our
languid heat
against my cheek
and we sat
here.
right the fuck here.
in the dark
sobbing
for things
we couldn't describe
and lives
we shouldn't steal
but we did
we stole those lives
stole the fuck out of them,
and...
