I come to you naked:

Some part of me knows
every dress I have worn
never fits quite the same
when it's been on the floor.

The fabric is frayed,
fatigued,
but displayed.

I come disconnected.

Some part of me knows
every wire I've crossed
never feels the same
after it has been lost.

Just gorgeous 🖖💜

You have become so small
in the space between
breath and hope.

I took your howling,
your gnashing,
and smithed it
into a mirror.
It reflected your hideousness.

You sold her things
before flowers grew
on her grave—
a ghoulish way to claim
you are the #haunted one.

Cobwebs full of dust
Shadows emerge slow creeping

Happy Saturday!

I've finished editing the chapbook for Cassiopeia Act II. Think of it as like a sampler of what is in the full version. Thank you all for joining me along in this journey. Now I can focus more on writing for a couple months!

Half a century on,
the memories call:

sisters true,
sisters silly,
spinning records
into the wee hours,
bubbling with #giddiness
at new fads
and ridiculously named parfums.

Half a century on,
still laughing
at our own awkwardness—

sisters true,
sisters silly.

I’ve exchanged
the wretched
for the #sublime,
the grimy
for divine,
the pain
for sunshine;

I’m bartering
what’s left
of my soul
for a chance,
one
last
chance
at a life well led

In the dreaming hours,
I slip the veil to meet you —
loneliness subsides.

Slowly,
steadily
we let it slip
new day’s verve
dulled by fear
we fail to resist.

Shadows grow taller,
darkness enthrals;
astonishing dreams
schlepp toward
materialistic charm
daintily drawn,
then all devoured.

Some days, my bones
are lead and crushed glass.

My mind, numb
but never still.
All sound dissolves
to humdrumming
universal static-songs.

I tuck these feelings
into a pocket
within a pocket—

So my #fatigued spirit
can taste exquisite quietude.

Resistance is

going to the park
reading at the library
viewing handmade art
laughing with your friends
drinking water
eating healing meals
writing poetry
living

Mind wandering, I
Pondered long, growing sense of
Sonder, in wonder.

Another delightful breakfast 😋

As a child, my father
was the sun,
spreading #global warmth.

I orbited him
like intrigued #technology—
his insignificant #satellite.

Until he fell,
wings scorched to #ash
and I saw a man
flawed as Icarus.

#Sonder hits—
he too
is broken

just like me.

The onyx of the night
Sparkles in the heat of your eyes

And in the silent ebbs and flows
We sway, burning up the ocean

The moon looks on a #beaming
Voyeur, along with his harem
Of stars
