Thank You (to Elise).
I hear the rattling, the ticking, and my Grandfather’s tinnitus (perhaps not), All the unheard aspects now, so therefore make a wish, Just one, and only one. For the evening had already set, As I waited for you—(and I near turned) all the timbre from your state, I sat down, Drank a cup of water, and I fluttered all over to make that very call. That tone, the sight of perception, not dozing on Winter’s fracture, That slung branch gone and lost, dying in a day
Father’s Ocean.

pilling, with my favorite lady an eos tread
see you, see me.
I see you I hoard your threaded- mulling-overs; playing me into junction, screaming, sighing screaming, sighing
My Eve.
you wound me A lotus dress with lace of red.
Memories, Never Mine.
I’m pissed at God, but tell me who has not been, and because I dream, my skull surfs in torrents
Psyche Revived by Cupid’s Kiss (after the sculpture in France).
psyche-reaped and kissed into a lushed womb where coiling into my lap, she lay
Have you?
Have you ever written a poem that was just... WAY too personal for anyone else to read?
don’t leave in limbo (Draft).
variegated in singes; touches of her neck and wrist, contused in no promises, only the sprawl of remembrance gets darker
Letting Eve in (Draft).
My hero turned out to be a monster, it sinks further in my chest; frail leaves and empty words spill—spill
Melpomene (Draft).
her lune, how precise and anticlastic as if each horror you provoked could somehow make me want you
Solicitude (2nd Draft Version).
like abandoned memories, recalled by my mother like when my grandfather said “I’m going to kill you” while counting money
it was home to me (Draft).
with no thread of flowers to plant your feet on, and into morning air at a hotel room remembering that’s what home felt like.
Pseudopsychosis.
