We Kissed a Book
When we lay in the grass reading the skies / In the summer grass, sonnets, love’s sweetest prize / Reading aloud the poet’s iambic sighs

Existential Crisis of a Sock That Lost Its Partner
The sock woke up alone, / which felt dramatic enough / to justify an existential crisis

Its not going to be easy
“It’s not going to be easy” / Whispers wreck my mind, / Almost soulless,

The Receipt in My Pocket
(An ordinary receipt, doing a better job of keeping track of my life than I do.) / I found it by accident – / a small, crumpled record

Rise. Rinse. Repeat. / The days rot us, / regurgitating redundancies.

I saw you from afar, / walking towards me / with sun rays resting on your face.

Chrysalis, or transmutational hubris, a spiritually grandiose daydream today’s dawn brought me.
Morphologically metamorphic integument, aura roan's rainbow mare. / Within your magical integument metamorphosis. / A transpositional interlude that transmogrifies our earthly shell into an immortal puissance, enshrouded in its mystical nimbus, objectified manifest's radix repartee.
