winter Nov 2023
i warm up cool down forever
even you couldn't reach
that absolute zero
we are cursed with eternal warmth
that is life
the heaven the absence of hell the final
cold nothing
winter Nov 2023
i feel my mouth in my soul
muscles in my cheeks
teeth, cosmic, prophetic
they'll outlast me
winter Nov 2023
death, my puppeteer, even in life
remember i, too, must die
even you, even soon, even i
winter Aug 2023
I'm on a list of things that look dead
at a distance
think of an existence
like an oil painting peeled
winter Jul 2023
The smell of childhood ***
creeps out with the morning
like rays of light through the trees, the scattered pupils watch
Talking through the fence

All this summer makes me sick
memories of my hometown
and the ant colony men
who've been alone for too long
and only look for ways
to spread their disease
winter Jun 2023
there's a head in every window
peaking through the blinds
and there's a man on every street
to follow you at night

there's a chip in your computer
and a dagger in your heart
and they're working side by side
to drag the guts into your art

every day I change the street I walk
every day I change town

but there are always tinted windows

and they are always slowing down
