stumbled striving for
steady-
reflection shattered, shards
gathered..
my bones for
better
or worse reverse
the curse.
wordplay
the further time
fades
out
of touch,
i confess to knowing
little about
much.
clearly you don’t
see me-
at least not
fully,
as i absorb to
release
that which won’t be
rendered in
speech
until
at peace.
fuck me fix this
drink
so i can taste
sweat,
don’t look me
in the
eye
incase you find
what you
like’s
grown cold as
stiff,
plunged without first
glancing
into shallow pond
at base of
cliff.
wringing caffeine
hands-
shoehorned into hearse
shaped bus
on
sluggish morning
rush
i lack the push to shove
my way up
front.
chewed through pencil,
lead tip smudge
loose leaf torn up, worn
off grudge.
there’s no delighting in
memoirs of sand
between
toes
sans each rinsing
ripple
recedes as breath
slows.
streetlight sweats
through
curtains drawn from
dusk till
dew
like greasy
glue
upon petals
part
overexposing
heart.
teasing lyrics from
flat scenery,
rerevising dirty
poetry,
no one reaches me
where you
do..
you find it
lonely
too?
how are you the
mind
behind matchstick
eyes?
hatching bedside
schemes,
manners matter
little
when setting fires
to be seen.
