days ago I trotted to my kitchen
from my desk for a glass of water
drinking only half
and leaving the rest to
bubble over
and become stale
now as I write
the glass remains
but is slowly
fleeting
The threat of nonexistence does not frighten
only the journey there
and the inconvenience of it all

That Lady
That Lady
There are phases to looking at women on the street
Yes you see them before you see them
But then you look away
Afraid to to find out they don’t love you
Sneak a peek
Then look away
Frightening
And deadly
Full of kindness
They know
They know the world you can’t find under that janus mask
World might collide
But that lady would be the dividing line
Sneak a second peek know it’s all over
You’re found out
But still shy
Now walk along strong
And un-humiliated
You know she will

All the stories of love are just stories
told by the old and young wienies in the loving room
it's clear,
with any sense at all,
that love is just as watered down, dull, and *******
as all its users
Be wary of those who claim to have answers
choose a side?
choose a hobby
personal and refined, put in 10,000 hours
something to be selfish about but no one ever knows
share views and expect to fail
learn moderation as a second language
tolerance so encrypted that you lose the meaning
know that your life is your life
and your views
yours and yours alone
dine with Kierkegaard for the rest of forever
all power to the sciences
but that's not what I'm trying to do

childish games
disguised as grownup work
the things we all do for money
and justification
and purpose
not coming from our own mind
but others
the greatest share game
we were never ourselves
but at least we shared alot

In the city
the hair is split where the scripts sit
ending on pages lined daily
people walking by dumpsters eating hotdogs and pimples
tanning in the sun.
they get plenty of light
all the time
forever isn't long enough to read the
text written for you
freewill is out to lunch today two blocks down
but no one stops at the factory

love
is a four letter word
said, and put on display just like the others
for publicity
and self gain

The apartment is not yet broken in
a rice cooker softly steams on the counter
there is grease splatter on the stove
12 pack of burgers $7.99 at the store
one chair in the living room
grandmas old sitting chair where she would knit
hairspray stains on the back
2 bedrooms
one with a bed
one with nothing
