Grief lacerates me
until flesh peels from bone
skeletal remains

Scorched and burning
love reduced to smoke and ash
broken-hearted haze

My anxiety
roils in my upset stomach
curdled milk

My heart: a relic
from when I pulsed with love
calcified heartache

Is it an omen
these lengthening shadows
a lone crow caws

Grief burrows
beneath my skin and settles
marrow-deep

Just posting this. Everyone knows why.
Text of the fourth amendment “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”

I drink my coffee
black with a bit of rancor
divorce is bitter

I carry you
like a splinter, buried deep
threat of infection

Facing the mirror
I pull a ghastly face
to match how I feel

Fetid odor
of lacerated heart
love left to rot

A shower of shards
when forever doesn't last
heart full of splinters

There is courage
in facing another day
uncertain future

Take this dull pickaxe
and mine my petrified heart
once a precious gem

I long for harvest
an abundance of plenty
My fields are fallow

Waking up to find
home isn't where I left it
but where you left me

Divorce slices
promises made in good faith
severed bond

I know! I feel like adulthood is such a scam.

Favorite season?
Fall of the patriarchy.
It's almost here.

Adulthood: you give
best effort but nothing goes
according to plan
