Allowing the static to settle
A world almost remembered
The boundaries feel
Like a dream
The forest withers to desert
The sun will always disappear
But it's high in the sky
I am painted with shadows
The warmth is a kiss on the mouth
we're not kids anymore.

Allowing the static to settle
A world almost remembered
The boundaries feel
Like a dream
The forest withers to desert
The sun will always disappear
But it's high in the sky
I am painted with shadows
The warmth is a kiss on the mouth
It all boils down to
My head is always so full
My hands are empty
I'm embroidering ideas
Just to keep me occupied
I quantify pigment
Crimson petals leaking
From a Robin's egg sky
An exhale into ebony
I fold gently
All torn skin
All nervous hands
All bitten lip
The frantic dance
Of clock hands circling
The way the stars
Fall out of sight
I know how it feels
To fade
Watercolors &
A river wound
We can't go into the water
Cause amoebas are all breeding
And our brains will be a slaughter
If we give them for the feeding
And sometimes our air
Is too toxic for us too
And it's easy to despair
It's the natural thing to do
We are the monster that fell out of the trees
An ape with a desk job, eaten with greed
Sometimes the people are just a disease
Sometimes an ending is just what we need
We built the fire and now everything burns
We are the bullet placed in the gun
The smartest beast that never learns
We're the sickness that can't be undone
Glittering nostalgia
Dancing in the gold dust
At least it seemed so then
Every star was a wish
I was roses and trust
Just glittering rust
In a wayward storm cloud
Those gossamer wings
My honey drunk heart
The bees still find
Blossoms in the dark
Incandescent dream
Flickered gently in the wind
The trees told secrets
The moon kept counsel
Her eyes scraping the shoreline
Like some salty prayer
I am trundling earthbound
Still trapped here in the middle
My words have no wings
But I have wishes
That glow gently in starlight
The light still survives
I know that life has
A mean right hook but I am
Learning how to duck
The leaving never
Really leaves me, a castoff
Another discard
A child just counting
The tail lights, those scorpions
Painted red with want
The poison settled
In my bloodstream and now
I'll always be sick
& the tumbleweeds
Have taken hold, this desert
The corpse of desire
I'm massaging calluses
Waiting for pink skin to bloom
I want to be wine
Moscato sweet and sun drenched
To grow ripe in the dirt
Not this vinegar bitter
All the burn and the pucker
Or a peony
Fragrant with the morning dew
A butterfly's home
No thorns, only soft welcome
A bright, blooming sort of dream
The pale pastel of grief
Watercolor thread
Throwing splotches
At tepid light
Malnourished
At the root
A gentle moan
A bitten wrist
I will wander
Under elm and spruce
I will wrap myself
In never was
These fruiting bodies
Taste like wishes
The river stinks
Of my despair
Restless as spring soil
Full of seeds, worms, and secrets
Aching to erupt
Somewhere inside all this mess
True beauty waits, wriggling
Saguaro stuck
These desert dreams
Languish
Mirage before oasis
And the sapphires
Sparkle behind jagged hills
I am thirsty
Suspended somewhere else
Once the willow
Kissed the oak
And the honeysuckle swam
But the minutes march on
Just me and the lizards
In this sweltering echo
The sand a blister
My smile a wound
I plant a seed into the dirt
I anticipate the bloom
I am burying the hurt
I illuminate the gloom
I will water, I will wait
I will cherish, soft, the light
But in the end its fate
Is not something I can fight
& I know the bugs are hungry
That the rain may never fall
But l know I'll never see
If I never try at all
White noise roars beneath
My noise suppressing headphones
Yearning for quiet
Every decibel a bruise
I am desperate for peace
Search the words for weight
A restless wind will arrive
Dandelions, dance away
Plant your wishes somewhere else
