Marduk
came down to Hammurabi
and provided the
laws
of the kingdom
in hopes that
the strong
might not oppress
the weak
and it all disappeared
under the ceaseless
sands of existence
and doubt.
If God
is love
then I really
need to tell you
how intensely
I experience
God
when you're in
the room.
No one wants to play with a broken toy
no one wants to be with a broken boy
I seem to have
lost
form and structure
and spark
and fire
and the words
won't come when
I call

Is this what it's
like to be alone?
To be without?

Where are the words
when I need them most?
you spend so much
time
writing poems
in the form of
love letters
to memories
that you can't be
one hundred percent
sure
ever existed
in the first place
the thing about mistakes
is that nothing
feels
better than
when you're making
them
blissfully unaware
of unforeseen
consequences
I am a hole
that light cannot reach.
You all will fall in,
not suspecting a thing.
Looking up as you fall
is like a fading mirror -
you'll see all that you were
before it disappears.
This goes on for some time
before your back hits the dirt,
softly despite the distance.
When you feel the dark
and your imagination gets dull,
you will lie down and sleep.
And after you've slept
in me for the very first time,
you will not quite know it then,
but you will be nothing.
You'll be mine.
it is easy to hoard
scars and hope
that the collection
would deter others
from wanting to provide
new ones
but eventually all that
scar tissue
binds up and
you stop being able
to move

i'm your weakness,
your own personal drug.
I'm your high,
You're my low.
