Anise fills my mouth While the words I speak Stream Surrounded By the leaves of May’s gold Cloaking treetops Every little photon a bomb Napalming and dancing along So much more to go Suddenly As the song of fission Must go on Down veins Down vessels Arteries of firs And these tall creatures Tasting theContinue reading “Indictment of the Time”

Those Four Ghosts
Hovering Haunting Above blacktop Phasing through Everything They shift In and out of being Hoods representative of shields And displacing Blinking Far reaching Between two times Every other second Pauses And we can walk While others stop Teleporting every Two moments Ten feet forward Talking to each other Unaware of the stakes Or that othersContinue reading “Those Four Ghosts”
Same Planet
Fear does run deep into the heart Of anything done while we’re Inebriated by vulnerabilities And without naming specific Days, times, places, wonders I struggle to find words as to why I appreciate you so much So to this I’ll say I think of all the drives To wherever we go Holding a paper cupContinue reading “Same Planet”
Seven Years Ago
Seven years ago Halo: Reach was coming out. I was 13 and my best friend Had convinced me to get an Xbox 360. Middle school seems too far away To think those days faded away.

Art
I can make you hurt like I do If I really wanted to Some things aren’t worth Going down with the ship Lost on the seas Drifting for years Seems like everyone’s hurt Already I want to be a pianist and a painter Passing by them on the waves No one wants to climb aboardContinue reading “Art”
Day 2
Day 2 To my love: You don’t know how much Time feels like has passed Three hours in a day all To myself And that’s all Two days is all its been Two days and it feels like I’ve been deployed To a world war for four years 16 hours stripped from 48 16 lessContinue reading “Day 2”
Underwear and Boxers
Underwear and Boxers Left tangled up In the blankets After a long night Of morning In morning With the window open Because the room And our bed On our second floor Got too hot After sweat stuck To our hair And made it stiff In places Like hairspray does But sporatically We remember The morningContinue reading “Underwear and Boxers”
