when i sit n rip to shreds all those thoughts that led me to dispair– i rejoice in His name, hold your hand and regain my fame/self-centered recollections of a life i lived yet you don’t know. it’s not all about the benjies, though that kid could solve a crime better than scoob, sometimes you [...]

where/when/what/why
where/when/what/why do they come back stronger every time i try to persuade myself you never existed before? thoughts, strangers i know but close the door on, bring me to the brink/rataplan in my chest to show you were alive, my old friend who never knew how familiar i wished we would have become until well [...]
My Wife, In Any Situation
I see your lock on me. I fidget slightly, shifting for your eyes to follow; and they do follow, spreading your mouth’s corners to match their smeyesing. I look away, as I am on duty, after all, but your presence/allure/ your pledge to me keeps relaxing my mind, giving my body a chance to be [...]

Through held breathing
the kitten/ cat slinks in stealthmode amongst the outcropped clothes and logged shoes; she knows their place now, certainly, though, through held breathing, inhales their journies.
I love you!
I love you, Your spying eyes licking my face, Your worried questions as to why I stare when you do not; I love your quick-to-rise smile, slowly lifting those spying eyes.
holding our breath/about to turn blue/seeing the stars ahead/believe it’s coming true/i told you a while ago the world would be ours– just wait with me until/ we’ve found that happy medium, ourselves– you bring me joy beyond any smile i could face– it’s all about the comfort, i’m never afraid so long as i’ve [...]
