Death and Clean Laundry
I left your cup
next to the sink -
it’s empty, like me
it needs to be
cleansed,
given a fresh start
but I’m not sure
I believe
in new beginnings
anymore
I put your clothes away,
as if freshly starched
shirts and clean socks
will bring you back;
you left your laundry
in the dryer again,
wrinkling in stagnancy
and weight;
it took me months
to touch it
always in a hurry,
you never even bothered
to say goodbye,
instead you just vanished;
it’s...

Corporate Shenanigans
It’s an upsetting thing looking back it now
I thought I was just doing my job
But those of us who worked in subprime lending
We were part of that predatory mob
I had access to so many files
But I was just a paper pusher in those days
Get it from one reviewer and then out to another
I never really questioned every bonus or raise
It was a like a freight train on speed
Eventually the steam for the company ran out
And there I was, jobless for a while
Unsure of how all of that came about
Later on as the entire world went...

Labyrinth of Dreams...
I am again wandering in the Labyrinth of Dreams,
Those dreams that remained after you,
I am quietly dying in this oubliette,
Those plans that I built have failed!
You are my Stalker of these claustrophobic corridors,
nostril ringed manacle gleaming gold cast from flames
Keeping me bound in this collar and fetters, choking me
And your eyes and the cold of the walls are catching fear,
I overtake the night, I step into infinity,
Trying not to notice my knees scraped into blood!
You stretch out your hand to...
Those dreams that remained after you,
I am quietly dying in this oubliette,
Those plans that I built have failed!
You are my Stalker of these claustrophobic corridors,
nostril ringed manacle gleaming gold cast from flames
Keeping me bound in this collar and fetters, choking me
And your eyes and the cold of the walls are catching fear,
I overtake the night, I step into infinity,
Trying not to notice my knees scraped into blood!
You stretch out your hand to...
