"new post"
It could be about anything
once the button's hit
he was driving, my
seventh grade math teacher
and let it fly out the window
my Chapter 7 Test
pre-composed
undisposed
It's not about him or that,
it's about this feeling of
grappling with the moment.
You have to be willing to improvise.
To give it up to whatever the universe yields in turn-
and good,
bad,
let someone else be the ogling judge.

walking home
it's not a denial
or a denseness
to which place
in mind
is place of real
I walk
and it is not
some godlike
sense of security
for I'm aware
of should'st be a shiver
where there is none–
I know but to know
is not to be–
it is not the lit
buildings, guardians
of nigh,
or the eyes of the streetlamps,
witness to
all wayward
journeys–
or the light in the window,
a curious
will o' the wisp?...
No.–
It is the moon
illumination awash
laked shores
the compass'd sky–
the Moon,
she lights everything up
like day.

Re: bad days
You're quite funny–
you think you know bad?
Try being sick, or crazy, or mad.
Look at you,
you know nothing of this.
You needlessly yearn but have nothing to miss.
You're inventing problems
your strawberries froze!??
I've never eaten one of those.

bad days
My strawberries froze
my friends are upset
the walls know
the coroner I met
Hibernation is over
the blue bells run dead
the battering red rover
has left us in shreds
The landscape drips oil
our ever blunder
o'er wasteland we toil
and defeated, fall asunder
I must bring myself to say
Sometimes I fear these are very bad days.

Magic exists,
I discovered in a soft pink room
in a 20-minute dream
fuzzy heart trace gracing my head
prisms of sunshine falling from zzzzzzz
I awoke restored in the province of fairy
knowing the world magical to be.

And to that girl,
Makenna Rose,
who makes me believe magic exists–
Clad in pink, clasping to spires
She looks to the open sea
Sun a tangerine orb of fire
From guile affectation she's finally free
That which fizzles here on planet's castle
The institutions of music it pervades
They mistake beautiful for fragile
Forgetting her heart is of the glade
Let us together the three sing
in full-lunged triumph to their glower
speeding night to Muse we cling
They forget that warmth, kindness, are power.
to my gorgeous friend, happy late birthday
let Tolkien's light again this year forge your way. <3

Limoncello
A bottle, geometrical glass, its mystical contents contained by wax dripped seven years past.
In it there's brusque matching dresses, white foldout chairs rows upon rows, the beating sun.
An afternoon slathered in sunscreen, swingset haven to our exhilaration.
Crisply: "Be our DJ," and the radio propelled in and out of midday traffic.
Sometimes I wonder where they went–
and if there's no way of getting them back
what happens when the seal is broken, the bottle empty?
