post offices
are decent enough
deciding places.
they are also good
for smoking nervously
outside of and
scratching second ever
scratch tickets.

mystery last month poem
run away
a wayfarer
fair and further
seem forever
don’t care so much
don’t say a thing
don’t mind the mood
you're mentioning

two today
i have more interest and desire
in my toes and your mouth
than i do in waking
social vexwoking
instead of my walks being in old footsteps
i wonder about those
i have left behind
in my minds exile
(was i ever there?)

veins
you didn’t keep your promise
and if you’re not reading this
well, i still don’t trust you
but, your red veins
of steadfast devotion
i’m returning by post
if my blood moves without
you beside them
you can blame caffeine
otherwise
i am still and baby blue
like shoe crab blood
at the bottom of the sea
waiting
with perpendicular sting

fluves
i taught my shoes how to multiply by five
they turn tiny toes under, undertaking
in ten wing tipped caskets. a warning
that warming where you want it most
only leads to bleeding out their ghosts.

the day

the luxury of silence
in the still dim room
that went quiet on her
she couldn’t even hear
her toes wiggle
under the sheets
her porcelain friends
looked on with
silent apathy
in the cold new
england bed room
that contained her
warming body and
broken heart, she
squeezed her eyes
shut and when that
didn’t work she
rubbed her
eyes with her
fists until stars
came out
and when that didn’t work
she thought about
backwards beatles and
whistled to herself
the world must let me focus
or my mind will let me go
nothing seemed to work so
she just prayed with wheat pennies
between her teeth and it went like
please and please please and
one two three four five six seven eight
