"you don speek my languish"

"I'm learning. Learning takes time so leave it to me."

"I'll wait anoth ur 150 yeers, if you are not fluid it is good see yeah."

"'Goodbye.' You don't speak my language either."

"you don speek my languish."

waiting politely, Tinkerbell glow fading curiously into the overheat overwhelm of city neon and street lights, Soul's glazed eyes of hypnotic intuition begin to close.

"150 yeers. meet me everywhere."

Fading into a geometrically dark centre (dark as in far too bright, similar to when one stares incessantly at anything at all and the peripheral begins to fade into whatever greater colour scheme the senses have meshed into a Rorschach blot you've been asked to interpret), Soul fleets a smile (you feel Soul's smile, as Soul has no real face- Soul has all faces and hence none).

"Goodbye. You will find me when you find yourself."

"You do speak my language."

"I do." Soul whispered back, adding--

"It is you who doesn't."

I'm usually waiting. work-wait,
wallet-wait, wait for the waiter
(waitress), all wretch, no *****,
waiting. waiting for the moment
I can finally look around and say--

'ah, there it is.

always in my back pocket

jabbing my ****.'

kiss-hug the red-line intention
to a snapper fish lipstick, you
sick thankless. thankless to the
fact that thankful is relative--

CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW, CAN YOU HEAR ME PICK UP PICKUP PICKUUUUP

trucks continue to glide down the
Trans-Canada highway as I wonder
if I've been getting high the right way.
I'm a snitch and I found me. Tell me
where I'm hiding.

I know we won't last 'forever.'
one day I will die, one day you
will die

one perhaps significantly earlier
than the other.

maybe minds will change, plans
will change, places will change,
people will change, we will change

perhaps we will stay
perhaps we will go

**** if I know.

this, however, is okay.

I have never loved anyone
so much.

every moment with you is
a precious eternity
and it makes me glad
to know we sprout from the
same eternal source so
although I can and will
lose 'you'

I will never lose
you.

you.

*you.

dusk on the arm

sky empty of everything
but 3 orange clouds
as the sun is chased by
shadows

and shadows are chased
by the ache in my
outside inside
inside out

beauty hurts so
imprecisely
that I wouldn't
call it
pain.

I'd call it
the manifest destiny
of impermanence.

we inherit nothing.

one day I will die

and I will be forgotten.

and I will be okay

I will be wrapped
inside the

manifest destiny
of
impermanence.

I will be oh
I will be 'oh'

'oh my god
it's beautiful'

this manifest destiny
of impermanence

this manifest crosswalk
of the gods

eternally nodding hello
and waving
goodbye

art is catharsis
and I am suffering
from

completion, implosion,
erosion,
