Been obsessed with weaving Warp and weft Under over Around and back I like to roll the fiber between my fingers I get messy with my merino with my flaxen string Over under I fray and layer Back and around My mountains are jewel green silk Spun by brown hands in Peru Maybe I like how loose spun galaxy blue Feels like galaxy blue It's texture and grain Make me look for Blue star stains on my fingers As back and around I weave I am a pretend fate Feeling my fiber Weaving myself wool mountains and silken seas Like so many women In and out Of time

I just want to get lost in something I am avoidance at all costs ***** messy messes Piles of paper and projects Piling peeling pooling I want underwater lights at midnight Piling up papers when there's music When there's music

Instead
It's raining And I'm trying to think of something profound But my thoughts are not profound They are the thoughts of thousands It's raining And I lie here And the beauty and vastness and **** storm thunder of this place Steals my breath It's raining And I'm thinking of my youth Lost My mother ridden with cancer My soul screaming My loves living their lives in pampered perfection Proud pictures shining and dripping off of social media It's raining And I'm tired

I am a gluttony glute A globulous festering Chute A billowing bellowing Blorp A sniferous sneferous Snort

I once thought it imperative to write As if my voice should be heard Echo lisp revelations Now I jot down despondency On my phone Now I lapse echo lisp By myself With ***** teeth And lies wrapped around the ache drop gasp in my stomach This experience of mine This fetid decay of flesh What pain are you killing?
