i feel
so disconnected. pictures of stars are trillions of seconds old
heliocentric. we spend our time wishing we could revisit a setting
i could see it in decimals. each dot a pause in a sentence
hold my hand, avalanche. bring me the check when you’re finished
mezzanine at the theater, velvet seamstress, madam Gutierrez
que romántico eres. carve my heart, au revoir mi mujer
i spend the evening in tears, like its common procedure
every droplet is a sonnet, every water stream a cathedral
where people gather, or they scatter, whether it be former or latter
and they pray to their jesus, and i pray cause i have to
there’s order in madness, rhetorical hope in the sadness
like a volcano that’s dormant or a star going dwarf
just part of it all, endorphin hull, heart to starboard
when we talk, disembark. your lips presses mute
mrs vixen, so dissolute, pixel perfect, lipstick in blue
vigil for a virgin, vicissitude, picture me as i picture you
don’t listen when you talk, kiss your ears when you moan
so petite, heavenly, pour the shot-glass, and reload
monkey see, monkeys cheek perfect on your ocular bone
cause to me, you’re as sweet, as strawberry dose
through the darkness, on horses. cobweb corrosion
cut through the bark with my sword. I’m sorry my forest
double entendre. knot in my throat.
not even sober
harlequin clone.
dark knight imposter, I’m already joker
early onset alzheimer’s,
forget what you told me
along the lines, were ostracized, but we’re all really lonely
wave down a taxi, drop me off on the corner. call me when you’re home
wait for me at the door, don’t leave me alone
lay down – the house spins. false belief, methadone.
marmalade, cherry tree, cigar leaf, telephone
qu’est-ce que c’est¿
fasten seatbelt while seated, mi amor
stand to applause, an encore, such a valid response
you’d barely feel it
you moved on, so very far.
i checked my bags at the door. viewed the empty decorum
sit at the bar. recount the experience
watch the only bag revolve round’ the oval
let me fall. so very scared
we should want what we fear.
thanks
