and i’m sorry
for being so critical.
i’m sorry
for wishing you were
someone else.
i’m sorry
for not treating you
with the care
you deserve.

i realise now,
you’re perfect,
just the way you are.

and i promise
to love you better.

- to the girl in the mirror
          - ruled by mercury

Gutless guillotines

mounds a mass of razor blades

rise of the treaty

bad ****** expression
good impression

bad speaking expression
good impression.

I can't-
leave me alone
we have nothing
in common-

I'll walk
in another direction
(without enmity)
towards my desired destination-

every life is lived in the singular
each knows its own ken
freedom lies in the self
it belongs to no clan

and so delighted I am
to know my silent plan
to move forward
to explore, reach and expand
