The cross-eyed bear
a snowy feather
in Minnesota weather
forever and ever
a dance to see
grace
clumsily
on mine shoulder

I love when my mustache freezes
I hate when my freezes must ache
you love living in Minnesota
or you hate your mistake

within the desolate black bile shadow beneath us
where the candle of confidant and lover ceases
despite all things, yours is sacrosanct; yours undegenerate
aflame through death and bringing life to the tenebrae

My love for you is dancing the color yellow

Of the sun
just as bright;
the world's light

soft as dandelion,
a blast of wild flower
withinfinite prairie

the glow of camp & a forest night
a porch lantern
caressed by the breeze

the caged canary
deep in the mine
My beating heart

solitude ocean island:
alone starved & dying:
one possession:
mono track:
single speaker:
          plays jazz

me, the end:
abandoned & happy

in the sense that
each moment is
a half
moment plus
a quarter
moment plus
an eighth
moment plus
a sixteenth
moment plus

my infinite moment with you

become echos
and tribute

On the consequence
of space, time, and chemistry:
I'm glad there is you

when you die
pieces of me die
parts that anxiously anticipate
moments of shared reflection
on what made us grown
when you die
I am left
and solitary reflection

Like, I was all
                         like What is life

And you were all

                Ugh,            I know                                            
                ­                                                                 – right

And nothing was            
                                                                ­                … right


                              in this   world



But it

                  didn’t

                        matter

   ­                                      Not
                                                Really

     ­                                                    because
                                                         ­   nothing

Mattered

                                           ­                                      nothing didn’t matter

If Donald Trump isn’t a disgrace,
then no office holder
in the United States can be labeled
as such.

He is either prejudice,
inept, or
thoughtless - or
all three.

The reign of Mr. Trump
has been one continual
deluge of malignant passions.

As president,
he has hardly
ever opened his lips, or
pecked his thumbs, without
threatening and denigrating.

The grand object
of his term has been to
aggravate the acrimony
between the contending parties,
spread falsehoods, and
destroy every public figure who speaks
against him.

Mr. Trump has labored, with tragic success,
to break up the bonds of social affection,
and under the ruins of confidence and camaraderie
to smother the faint and wavering light of happiness
that flickers through this dark and detestable absurdity of life.
