a mother’s motivational silence
speaks to a jesus
who at this point
has been alive
longer than he lived

-

I am of two beasts
when put in the mind
of my brain’s mirror

-

while doing the same thing
day in and day out
my father suffered
various indignities
commonly associated
with babies
and naked women

-

it is childish
how much time
she thinks I have
to touch everything
in the store

-

no offense
to your proactive
vacationing

but this

this, is dying
