“I need you to
drive. skies are dripping. I forgot my sanity.” bled out, a bit tipsy, Love
looks like a diamond. I forgot life. I forgot scruples. I was knee in, spitting
up chunks. I murdered myself, like deep impatience, Love was named after an
angel. I’m sweating, I’m moist, the room is her color. I love it I’m sickness
it could be ugly.
a mile running
looking at asphalt, what kills a man strengthens a man.
I was lost at a restaurant
I was wobbling a Mexican American, she came like rescue. soft tender memory a
night we die like at my funeral burning in essence.
I drift into a
puppy I see eyes like a lemur I was so forgotten for so many years. a screaming
ache a mistake for mother, for father couldn’t handle insolence. a cape on a
problem on it never became a ride to heaven. Love was dark chocolate. Love makes
intimacy. I never felt such a pain. like dating frustration, like too damn good
to let go, like a mind-vacation. bleeding to die living to give so much wowing
in a womb. too moist too tight too much to run from. a sad day a sad
conversation. I disappeared.
tonight is liquor,
a woman, a night in swirls. the room needs to move, the windows speak Swahili, the
floor is cold glass.
I’ve love for
struggle, I need a human, a woman on her best behavior is a bad night. make it
work. the son just died. mother too high to breathe. much fear in an angel.
many cringing to get life. a soul might live with faith.
