Chimkin

hunger from long days
working to many hours
to make life possible

making some chimkin
for those late night
cravings we all feel

feeling like garbage
and ready to cry
late at night 11:45

bringing gifts to friends
yummy crunchy chimkin
they cheer me up again

The story behind "chimkin" is that one late night at like 2AM my brother made fried chicken and brought it to a friend as comfort food. The had the heady sleep deprived mind so they kept calling the chicken "chimkin". The name stuck and now late night meals are "chimkin".

Dysania

waking up again
experiencing dysania
weary yet again

Untitled

when sitting at your desk
you experience hypesthesia
from being to statuesque
it's called paresthesia

don't want to swear
by yelling out bollix
take it out with blare
or a string called grawlix

do you have that tickling
feeling on your niddick
don't know that christening
it's your nape to be specific

going into winter sun
that soft warm felicity
experienced by everyone
that is called apricity

Just a bunch of things people don't really know the names of. They have titles but we don't call them we describe them.

Convenience Store

what is more convenient
than a convenient store

open twenty-four hours
waiting for me as always

to bundle my nerves up
and venture out again

when I get there at last
I'm greeted with silence

with the washed out lights
and tired apathetic cashier

a place where no one cares
and your business is yours

no judging eyes found here
for those sleep deprived tears

I always want to write like twenty poems when it's this late but I'm going to stop and try to sleep again now...

1:59AM

those dark bruised eyes
sag with desperate yearning
to find sleep again

God, I really need to go to bed... I'm so tangled up it's like if I relax for one moment to sleep I will fall apart completely.

it's still dark out
it's eerie and quiet
still as a grave now
