slowly i have found myself
growing more and more
envious of the sheets you
sleep with or the wind that
is allowed to wrap around
you.

I'm
s  o
sure
that every
bit of my life
has   led   up   to
me  with  y o u,  that
we   are   not   merely
two  beings  colliding
in the cosmos. It  will
always  be  you  that I
stumble on for, whose
words  I'm  sure could
cure        even          my
brokenness,   who will
always be in control of
the    t h u m p i n g   of
my heart. And I am not
a s h a m e d    of    that.

it was so simple.
you put your
hand on your heart,
you said "you're
first in here."
what is if (does the who why) and?

me perhaps you perhaps the trees
(and thousands of them(i have seen)
and thousands more await
each day as grass of us
belched of cloven stuff foil'd
'bout the neatness of gravestones)

there is a garden
and i have been amongst who
the stems of it sleeps girls
in their skin awake;

in their skinny awake
on unsure knees
ushering

boysandgirls

to and fro

toandfro boys and girls

go into each other their lips and out comes the Earth.

sounds slide slowly
past palaces pitted
against aggressive
kings
          constantly
killing
           cowardly
farmers franticly falling
towards towers
of
endless eroding
pillars piled
with intentions of a sinister nature
built only to lead fools to die in a room with no light

You don't talk to me,
anymore.
The voice in my head,
Its gone.
My mind,
Is a bit emptier.
My desires,
feel lonelier.
My thoughts,
They seem larger,
With no one to share them with.

I,
am mine.
I am alone.

But,
You wouldn't know.

Because,

We don't talk anymore.
Birds are flyin' south for winter.
Here's the Weird-Bird headin' north,
Wings a-flappin', beak a-chatterin',
Cold head bobbin' back 'n' forth.
He says, "It's not that I like ice
Or freezin' winds and snowy ground.
It's just sometimes it's kind of nice
To be the only bird in town."
