Poems
May 2014
A series of observations
~your mouth is glued shut and they're standing across from you screaming about the grocery list and scented candles
~your lover is sitting next to you trying to tell you how your emptiness is seeping into his veins
~there are eight things you're forgetting at each moment in time and the ring around your left index finger is cutting your circulation.
~the planetary energy around you is rotting and you've anchored yourself to this very earth
~holding everyone around you on higher pedestals. purposely sabotaging the smile that just about crept onto your precious face
~the congruity of your parts has fallen and the spaces between each finger have started to collect dust.
~the scales of your peaceful life have been tipped for so long that you're the one who cries in grocery stores
~chasing so many avenues of adventure and thought at one time that your hands are becoming transparent
~you're dour, emotionless and resentful. you're an accurate description of the sun's frown but his smile hides it.
~you spit hateful phrases at him but are dying inside at the sight of his tears at your fault
