You study me, too afraid of rejection to fill me up and play our song. Pour me a drink and share the rhythm. Stay close, stay steady. I am your cadence. You are losing, me before you. You are losing, take what is yours. You study me, me before you. […]
Truth in the Elevator
The last time we spoke, we didn’t. You planted a cold stone garden when my soul needed a kiss of the sun. I thought the world of you … This is my floor.
Exhibit One
Strewn self serve legal papers and a collapsing curation of unfinished ideas illuminated by a warm peek-a-boo sun. My dream of Nihon preserved in a clay mug of cold tea. Good intentions obscured by Now, Late, Eventually. The disarray, a masterpiece of my own creation, as am I my greatest […]
I Wanted to Reach Out
For affirming clarity And the home in your voice Dissolving jagged agony From every clutched breath To post my mending hands On your face and your chest Releasing the torrents of starvation and absence May I have this dance? Conjuring alchemy in our bones We are outside of Time and […]

Hey. It’s Been a While.
Hey. It’s been a while. Let’s go for tea today. Our triggers twisted and tumbled. Again. The silence hurt like hell. If you don’t know the way back, You can borrow my words – Hey. It’s been a while. Let’s go for tea today.
