What more is there to say-
I've never found so much comfort
in a white page.
I bare my mind to you.
...
Rain falls like poetry.
The syllable of a droplet
Announced on the space
Where my hands should be.
...
I jot recklessly
on lines of luxury-
Pretentious symbols held heavily.
Oh,
...
Tip the bottle, tip tip tip
the meat won’t scream; no talking, no asking.
Lid is gone, drip drip drip
this gleaming stream is the first we’ve seen.
...
I’ve let the red dirt in the air
kicked up by bare feet
take root in my bones.
I’ve seen a whisper caught in the breeze
...
Sun gliding through the breaks in the branches above.
The water dances through my glimmering fingers.
An eagle silently suspended in the lonely sky.
The peace detaches itself from me,
...
I close the door to the house
of broken chandeliers
and catchpenny carpet stains.
There is no need to live
...
A trip down the coast
Down the stairs
Leads to a flooding basement-
An ocean behind a locked door.
...
Giggling from her eyelashes
Chuckling from his belly
Cackling from her nose
And its funny, because
...
The love of man will fail.
Ocean to ocean
His allegiance sets sail.
His emotions rise and fall
...
