"I possess a hunger for her. Impeccable nails mixed with cheap perfume. The quiet defiance that is her beckoning me to the parlor with a mouthful of promises. A vision of tawdry elegant softness, with hard edges I adore the most. I cherish her face too much to let her hide behind a mask."

We fall in line, waiting patient
Like the queue will sort our route
Growing worry, staying dormant
Trying to assuage doubt
But the line's going nowhere
There's others cutting queues
To get ahead, just anywhere
What should we all do?

Abandon lines
Rush the door
With the queue
Want no more

"I know the thoughts of the ghosts in the fields. My lips form their names in the afternoon quiet, with the wind for company. Phantoms of the land, with the #ash beneath the soil for a legacy. We exchange gossip forming a bridge between astral and earthbound. They don't lie to me. The living do."
Dried out corn fields under a blue sky.

Developed perfectionism
As a defense mechanism
To bury all my vulnerability
The most vicious criticism
The self-loathing cynicism
Feeding the growing instability
—
No abuse is greater than that
which we inflict on ourselves

"You'll find paradise in hands holding each other over a restaurant table. Small camera blinks from eyelids keeping score. When the subject discussed is an afterthought, the time shared is the prize. I leave space in my heart for love notes found in a gaze held too long. The silence without burdens"
