The light tail of the tail light leaves me blue in the dark hues
… when it carries away what I belong to…
Unfolding the tar-black sky of asphalt, the longest arm of missing you…
My body is now the distance between us, big and empty,
The bigger, the emptier, thinner than air…
As time piles up, my ladders turn into pointless meters
Measuring the ratio of nothing in everything
...telltale
I don't think Melville was
A heart-broken patriot
I think he saw the truth

There was a bleachers cleering
Race riot brawl
In the gymnasium of my youth

Quiet is a curious thing
I remember the monastery

My first real panic attack
Very, very scary

One is the loneliest number
Tonight, this night, I know

Seattle distant now
Like the cedar snow

         Ay yay yo!
Meeting you was an accident,
And
You are the scar
I never want to heal from.
it's a desire of mine
to be free from freedom
to be one with everything
to be nothing at all

it's a desire of mine
to run with the wind
to sink into the earth
to stand at the foot of you

it's a desire of mine
to give in to the sun
to feel the air
to be nothing at all
Old thoughts
When mixed with
old wine, make life
invigorating.
Life is a continuous attraction
and war between eyes
