I am a dad of two awesome boys. Currently separated, and finding my way. Taking a stab at writing has been helpful as I walk through the many changes I have been struggling with as of late.
Rising, falling, loving and hating,
Living, dying, giving and taking.
What tomorrow brings, we cannot know,
By faith we must walk, by wounds we must grow.

The time draws near for my final hemorrhage.

This cloak I wear, by day and by night,
Though warm it not, nor its burden light.
It hangs on my bones, as a drunk female sailor,
...
Ripping and pulling, this way and that,
Scratching and tearing, what’s got into that cat?
Never have I seen a small feline so queer,
