no one ever really got inside and even if they did I would always be lingering near the back door

I'm not afraid to die but I don't need to prove that, or anything else

(November 2020)



two things we have to live with
our circumstances and our choices

music...Memphis? the inseparability. I just can't deal with that. I have no will to compromise and no tools to cope.

the inability to close the distance
the sensation of touch
I canNOT stop thinking about you

your undivided attention...maybe at first. it's amazing how long that door's been closed. it's amazing the difference between the opportunities you have on first_impression_compared_to_everything_afterward. best I could do ever since was speak to you through the keyhole, slip my hand in through the crack in the window.

whatchathinkicouldgiveyou_n_whatchathinkyoucouldgiveme

I don't think you're in a position to put yourself into my life

so our circumstances

and so we make our choice to go, how?

the door that never closed is now open

these eyes are open, they see night clouds in February from the front yard
radiating a hazy fuchsia
glowing between the snow and the low
like everything was indoors
lined with insulation and still

ready to steady its pulse
ready to last the night
these hands are open
mortal
is the only synonym for love
come on

let's go in
