We were dancing on the rooftop

When I first saw this...

When we were kids we used to stand at the edge of the lake, skipping stones and singing songs in golden childhood early autumn evenings. Homework as done as it'll b...

last night i dreamed that i

was falling through space and sky

i landed near dawn

with my pjs on

and a nebula in each eye

 

We had the perfect thing going until ice came along.

Then she turned cold, I got bent, and we ended up empty.

Wandering about

You keep calling me out,

You with your sea serpent eyes.

You with your mouth like twisted ginger,

Hot with ancient lies.

They cut all the limbs off of the tree next door. The tree whose yellow leaves turned ''k-sh, k-sh" in the sunlight outside my window. Now, silhouetted in front of the sunset, it reminds me of a sa...

Dry your eyes now on...

Another moment on fire
I can almost see smoke 
Crawling lavender up the wall
Another moment on fire
You open the window 
So we can hear the rain
It reminds me of a car...

Do you wake up to the sound of crunching flowers
Mama in the corner at the grind
Spinning spinning with some muscle
Til buds are ground up fine

Then she sneaks out...

Sometimes I just walk down the hall hoping I don't hear ghosts.

no one knows just how...

Star: I wish I may. &l...

I know a smallish hero,

with diamonds in his eyes.

All day he saves the world with laughter.

But at night, he cries and cries and cries.

The Girl Without a Face...

I know that you're in love with me,
'cause when I ask for one more kiss,
you always give me three.

It's time for a new revolution
a non-violent solution
giving proper restitution
maybe corporate dissolution
and just retribution
for pollitical pollution

it's a...

"No, I don't want to get any closer"

"But you're missing it. Come on. "

"I can't." 

"Why?"

"I'm afraid of heights"

Live each day as if it were your last--->
Live each day as if it were your first

In the morning sun

Oh how I long to undo the buttons of her bonnet. . .
And run my fingers softly through her chestnut hair. 

Who tied that ribbon ‘round your head child
Who set you on your toes
Who straightened your back
And scrubbed your face
And made you wipe your nose

Someone sure did fi...

There's this little mouse that loves me
Though I rather wish he didn't
I scare him away on purpose because
I'm a dangerous friend to visit.

It smells like I'm sleeping
Toasted
Chilling
It feels like I'm weeping
Wretched
Killing
The secrets we're keeping
Ancient

There was something that I thought of that made me feel happiness and I ran up here to share it with you but now I've forgotten what it was. 

The closest to prayer I've heard from his lips, "Oh God, Oh God," and then the eclipse.

I wasn't ready for this knife, the blade is thin between death and life. 

You're the planet and I'm your moon. There's nothing for me, but to revolve around you. 

Spinning spinning with all of my might, your faithful little satellite. 

The screeching screaming hawks grow monstrous in my mind. I imagine they are huge. Then one blocks out the sun.  

I've got one of those up high little windows in my shower. I like it because it lets the light in, in a soft bluish white sort of way, and I can forgo the harsh and a...

All this time I've been collecting experiences here and planning to share them all with you. But we're leaving now and who needs to dwell on missed opportunities? We'...

We really must be made for one another,

for any other will not do.
