The power is off.
I sliced and peeled back the plastic covering;
Exposed the current bearer
For repair.
Twist it.
Tape it.
Make the connection.
Bring back the power and light.

I am crowding
The latest
Page
On a Sunday night.

Write,
Take the stage,
Believe me,
I only perform every now and then.

And I like
Reading yours
More
Than I like re-reading mine again.

I am ready.
Sunday night
Don't be intimidated
Write your poetry.

these days, emptiness is beginning to look more like a poem that writes itself. the irony is it is everything i can't be and everything i am

i used to deny myself death
as i was learned inflicting it
  would send me to hell.

i guess it saved me

i still bathe in that wish.
counting as they slowly wilt away,
  my white pedals of ash.
   the reward of risking the whole flower.

a crucifix to run from
sawdust on the streets

Money may not
grow on trees
But far too many people
are willing to go
out on a limb for it

Eyes are the window to the soul,

But what if,

You don't have one of those?

A soulmate would be great,
but at some point I'd settle
for someone who gets back to text messages
