Genie's Broken Home
 Jun 2014 RA

I found a lamp, a broken lamp,
keeps shining despite broken.
A magic lamp from a magic land,
Genie's home, o, sweet home.
Three wishes won't ever do,
three wishes crawling from
you;
Seems broken, o, yeah, it's
a broken lamp, a broken lamp from a broken land,
keeps shining despite broken.

Say your three wishes already,
says Genie.
I am writing a poetry, I whisper quietly.
What do you wish it would be? asks Genie, gently.
Ssshhh, you are bothering me, Genie.
Genie was bothering me
so I leave, I leave like the autumn leaves
drift by the window.
I leave like a sunset on a rainy day ---

Never say goodbye
to a broken lamp, a broken lamp from a broken land,
keeps shining despite broken.
I am sorry, Genie.

The rose saw me growing thorns in my kidney you stole
The rose saw me burying dead turtles in my, my, my eyelids
Burned
The rose heard me singing Amazing Grace off key in a mosque
The rose heard me trembling all over my journey to Saturn to Saturn to Saturn
Burned
The rose told me it was The Little Prince
The rose told me it's okay all is imaginative
Burned

To Plath
Chubbuck
And Duncan
Whose deaths I adore
Haha! Education
Is just another way
To suffer

Life as an art
Did you take it because
You feared it? Never ---

(Beautiful things
Will turn ugly, will rot
And become *****)

Why isn't illness
A right?
(Sorry. I'm sorry.)

to love a woman
 Jun 2014 RA
Mikaila
To love a woman is perhaps one of the most exquisite, uncertain, complicated, excruciating, maddening things you can experience in this life.
To truly love a woman, and appreciate it fully,
I think maybe you do have to be a little bit mad.
And... I am addicted to it.
And the women I love are punishingly extraordinary.
And if this love brings me to an end someday, well...
There are worse ways to go.

Hawk Flight
The strongest girl I've ever known
is starting to fall apart.
I can see it in the words
of her poems
I can hear it in her voice
on our calls on her way home from work.

She can deny it all she wants
"Hawk I'm fine knock it the *******"
But I know my Panda way to well,
to let this go

Pandora, Fenix,
My little sister
How can I help you?

I know my life isnt grand
and I know I can barely help myself
But I cant stand to see you like this.

You're the strongest girl I've ever known
Please  
How can I help you?
