I must have been born
like this—
right?

Born into this body,
this meat, this carcass,
this breathing, living
thing.

Born into light,
with light within,
for the light.

A light-bearer stands
in darkened fields.
And only there,
in shadows deep,
the light she carries
can be seen.

I walk toward her,
carrying this body,
carrying my questions,
searching for answers,
for relief,
for the source
of this unsettling light.

I must have been born this way—
right?
I was there;
It was weird;
Contained in walls
And hollows;

I walked there once;
It was weird;
The great God number
Is unfolding
In both
Time
And space
Just in time
For the changing
Of the human race

The Cromlech
Of Le Menac
At Carnac
Curves
And points
To where
We have been
Away from the merging
And the future
Serene.
Eleven years ago
Tonight
As the early
Autumn evening sky
Had just begun
To dim the light
You ceased to be
With my hand in yours
Shouting your name
With no response
Then those angels
Gently laid you back
Speaking sweetly
As you went
A thin rivulet
Of crimson
The sign
That you were spent
So I'll think of you often
And I'll send love with this
On September the 19th
About a quarter past six.
An ounce of fat
Why
Would you want to
Extracate that?
I don't believe
It would balance
The facts
Of what
I done wrong
Unless
Of course
It's trauma
Mitigated
From me to you
It's a two way
Switch station
**** thrown
And rubbed
In the foul
Confrontation
When back at home
There was
The harsh
Revelation
All we are
Is the touch
That we have
Best
Grab the bleach
And get in the bath.
Seems like
The best response
These days
To any question
Asked
Beyond the comedic
Haze.
I’ve Been Broken By
A World That’s Filled With Pain


death and hate
  and all of the things
that i can’t explain


I’ve Been Soaked For Years
just
Standing In The Rain



You Ask Me How I’m Doing
I’ll Say That I’m Just Fine

yeah i got a job
and the work is alright
it isn’t complicated
and i’m there all the time

and sure i’ve a got a boyfriend
he treats me real nice
i see him on the weekends
if he isn’t working nights

and sure my parents love me
they tell me quite a bit
And Maybe I Was Abused
but at least i wasn’t hit
I promise my misuse of capitalization is intentional
