(I) don't know what's sadder; (The fact that) I thought of you twice today, or that I'm (still) counting.

A lonely haiku
And here am I Saturday's brain Saturated and static Beautifully buzzing with anticipation Glowing, large, gorgeous I am rotund and proud Filled with the blissful tension leading Up to letting go My heart, like roaring drizzle Breathes up through my collarbones out my shoulders and ears A steady humming in my veins My earlobes murmuring In agreement I think I'll break the surface now

Pre-exam nerves
I can't tell the difference between The cars and the sea Both are so distant from this Makeshift bench near a domestic wasteland Pervasive wind sounds like a line of Ladies in waiting Arriving from the east And a million other birds I can't identify Are chatting in the west No doubt planning their next sockhop My blood is humming in my feet To the sound of crickets And the midnight gloom Is all too bright.

Cricket drawl on a Thursday morning
But I'm so very glad I said no And let you share my sheets But not my body Even though it's all you wanted

I don't remember much of last night
I have to stop filling the empty spaces in my bed with cotton and stuffing And start searching For love or self-acceptance - either would be less depraved than sleeping with the lights on, surrounded by bears

To-do list:
The literal opposite of a venus flytrap Apart for that quick second That breath Those words A grin- your grin Worn as soft as the twin peaks of your cupids bow My lips Anxious and white Swallowing flies and waiting For a chance to see your vermillions separate
