haunted by my self

watched from my unsung future

is she proud of me?

- sometimes the eyes you feel on your back are your own (haiku #122)

we have built ourselves

a home in webs of cement

and forests of glass

our green is too bright for the trees (#63)

tea fogs my glasses i can't see what burns my mouth name this blend yearning

sit across from me at this too expensive cafe and i can make metaphors out of anything (haiku #120)

dirtied from disuse

my heart is a dusty thing

don't leave me unloved

- take me off the shelf where i put myself (haiku #121)

date a horror fan when they hear your life story maybe they won't flinch

have some buttered popcorn and take a fucking seat (haiku #119)

lead me to water

so that i may drink you down

and leave a desert

- i'll take until you are nothing so give me nothing (haiku #118)

think of a peacock

these lovely, dirty, bright birds

so they strut or scream?

a first, both then and now (#87)

have you ever met

a woman who would be god

if only she tried

power is leaking out the seams of her flesh (#49)
