stand with me here. by a lamp post, a light house, a red light
so i can hope it'll shine right. so i look beautiful for you
only you. see me and be proud
of who you are and was and how you've come
and found and lost and grew...(more)

the words complicated
a tangle used as excuse
like the dream catcher in the corner of his room
with all that truth
lunging at it
trying to chase me
and with me. and smoke inside me.
the inhale stings
like the way he touches me
when i wish i were him
and i wrap it all...(more)

youre too far. and i need you.
need you now, need you tonight. will need you.
and when i get you, i get all of you.
the ridges of your body compel me, please me.
so i lay at your mercy. lustfully explaining
that look in my eye
submission becomes me, flatters...(more)

the sky sat a bit dark and the wind blew
but from our house, we were oblivious.
because i am lighthearted, absent minded
and you are naive
naive like you are, you tell me you dont like.
dont like me? dont like tonight? dont like the past?
just dont like? "yes" you...(more)

you saw surprised. and i saw you.
finally we saw each other
despite our disengagement
i am beautiful. and you are old.
and you live in one house, and i live at the opposite.

is a mystery of why.
the mystery you...(more)

you let me build the walls for you
re-enforced with my body
small and pale.
and while i built, you watched
and reminded me, of the days running back
to our jupiter. our town. out plastic apartments.
the city we broke.
the light that never
once
turned on.
the wind that laughed a caressed...(more)

he says he's a poet
a thinker. an artist.
he says he dives deeper
than a tight rolled blunt. and that girls underpants.

and so i was there for 3...(more)

all this sadness
kicks me back
to those summer afternoons
when the sun would sit in the center of the sky
and the fog blew wind around it
"blue patches, blue patches" they sang

and your dreams when we watched and listened

she took a borrowed road
to find alittle something
worth bringing home
after looking through coke bottle glasses
seeing through a thin coke line
she entered a small town
that gave her what she was looking for:

"tilt your head back, it'll go down easier"
he says. a redemption- like proposition
