Be
careful
of
the company you keep

the
quest to belong
straws
the
imagination

and
stray
bullets
kills
the
innocent
.
Awareness poetry.
  Jan 21 Khoisan

Even though
The ground is covered in snow
I know if you dig a little deeper
You'll find it to be warm
There are some people I thought I might never end up liking or being friends with, but I only saw the show. Of course, not true with everyone, but nevertheless.

(This note was written by a shirt that ate cobbler and then sat on air to watch a pen skydive)
Lying on my back in the sand
Dead fish flop desperately underneath my spine
Cold
Whispering
Corners of my vision
Taxidermied owl
Taxidermied swallow
Pinned Cicada
Etched with defeat.

Roar of the ocean
Flopping fish
You wave its fins in my face and
Run away when I wave back.

Words don't come easy

music is the food of love

play mystic for me

crackling champagne crispy sounds

I fell in love on Simone.
If music is the food of love play on

Warm bourbon bottle company
I won't need you anymore
Once the last drop is emptied
Ill sing myself a song of sadness
And fall asleep right where you left me
