Into a flaming shit show
That’s all about her
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The one thing that she
Complained about more than me
Was how much it cost
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1003
It’s been since COVID
That she stopped taking showers
Uses wipes instead
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1004
She’s the new best friend
With absolutely no clue
Why the others left
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1005
I hope she stops soon
This shit talk and harassment
Has gotten tiresome
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1006
My Muse needs to rest
This last drama was too much
She needs to reboot
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1007
It takes an effort
People can’t hide forever
Who they really are
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1008
Pieces of my life
Suddenly fell together
When my eyes opened
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1009
I allow nothing
To come me and my
Precious peace of mind
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1010
An unlikely pair
Glam girl and a sloppy bum
Can he afford her
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1011
Is all that I am
Just particulate matter
Clinging to raindrops
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1012
I’m dressed cowgirl style
A Spanish lady exclaimed
To me ¡que guapa!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1013
Green lights all the way
Traveling unimpeded
On straight and smooth roads
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1014
Spring is almost here
My heart sings with longer days
Darkness gets banished
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1015
My hoodie pouch stuffed
Giving me the bloated paunch
Of an old white man
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1016
The sun cannot rise
Until it is awakened
By morning bird songs
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1017
The rooster’s asleep
And neglecting his duty
To wake up the sun
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1018
The weekend’s over
It’s back to humanity
At its ugliest
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1019
People I deal with
Are either very stupid
Or being ugly
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1020
Each day I keep safe
Darwin Award candidates
From their stupid selves
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1021
Zombies are sleeping
Limp bodies frozen in time
On the train platform
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1022
Spring is almost here
Mexican primroses bloom
Along the sidewalks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1023
Getting the stink eye
From a glowering hermit
As he fouls his nest
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1024
It’s made from the piss
Of diabetic weasels
Bud Light is nasty
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1025
If it is not good
Still write it down anyway
To stay in the flow
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1026
My Muse has a name
She whispered it in my mind
Somehow it suits her
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1027
Not just a windbag
She’s much more refined than that
While keeping it real
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1028
Come Election Day
I hope sanity prevails
Let there be reason
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1029
It’s disheartening
To see an incompetent
Elected to run
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1030
Monsters in our midst
And other scary humans
Mingle among us
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1031
Those who see the truth
Get their names sullied and smeared
And discredited
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1032
Nothing in the bank
Yet she has on her fingers
Quite the nice fortune
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1033
She wants attention
So I’ll give her a chapter
In my tell-all book
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1034
The lights are so bright
At the soccer stadium
They whitewash the sky
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1035
I’m away from home
For more than sixty-five hours
During the workweek
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1036
I wake up early
My mind is racing nonstop
Feeling overwhelmed
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1037
Yo-yo weather
A string of hot days followed
By a string of cold
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1038
I could not resist
ADHD impulse buy
An eBay bargain
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1041
Daylight Savings Time
Made it very hard for me
To get enough sleep
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1042
He gave me the code
So I could let myself in
New level unlocked
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1043
She communicates
With ETs and aliens
They talk in her head
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1044
Wherever I am
Once it’s time to leave I will
Without looking back
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1045
He was very young
When he sucked his uncle’s dick
Cuz he was told to
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1046
He thought it was love
Didn’t know it was abuse
Or that he was raped
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1047
His uncle taught him
That there’s more to a penis
Than just making pee
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1048
He slipped his fingers
Inside her tiny panties
She was only five
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1049
He tried to blame her
Said she was leading him on
But she’s only five
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1050
He cannot accept
That he’s a twisted pervert
Children serve his needs
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1051
She is what she is
Incestuous pedophile
Preying on her son
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1052
Musette’s on a roll
Dictating to me haiku
About pedophiles
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1053
Nothing is taboo
From killing tiny kittens
To fucking schoolboys
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1054
She is a hoarder
Who cannot even throw out
Her shit-filled diapers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1055
When I tell others
Of my sister’s craziness
They all are speechless
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1056
Hope she looks at him
With a dispassionate eye
Then she’ll remember
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1057
Never felt better
Ever since I decided
To go no contact
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1058
It’s the harshest truth
Everything I cherished
Was based on a lie
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1059
Smear campaigns starting
If she cannot control me
Lies are the next choice
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1060
The platform sitters
There’s nowhere they need to be
They just ride all day
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1061
That’s absolutism
It’s either all or nothing
With no room to breathe
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1062
Yellow kimonos
Lying on the garden bench
I woke up too soon
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1063
Elusive meanings
Dreams of yellow kimonos
I could not try on
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1064
I do not reward
Any unsafe behavior
With a free train ride
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1065
Baby left the nest
Helicopter mom and dad
Hover close nearby
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1066
No hope for humans
Collective stupidity
Will get us all killed
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1067
Showed me her tattoo
A little bit of whimsy
Mushrooms on her leg
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1068
Our connection morphed
An emotional affair
His wife does not know
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1069
Dreams had fallen flat
Ambition gone up in smoke
Nothing left to lose
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1070
Some of them just sit
Doing their best to kill time
Bothering no one
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1071
I talk in haiku
With each measured syllable
I communicate
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1072
The package arrived
A faint whiff of cigar smoke
Clung to the contents
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1073
If he were cut loose
And all entanglements gone
I’d surely say yes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1074
I know that he sees
My encoded messages
And my secret thoughts
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1075
It’s ok to dream
And for now I’m content
To be with my dogs
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1076
I may hate my job
But I love my peace of mind
It’s worth ev’rything
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1077
Eagerly waiting
For my Asian tea shipment
I can taste it now
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1078
Eagerly I wait
For his email to arrive
We share a soul bond
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1079
Those three loaded words
Someday I will be able
To say l love you
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1080
He cares for his wife
He will not abandon her
So we’ll have to wait
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1081
We share a deep bond
That burrows into our core
Spanning across time
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1082
The time is not yet
We enjoy the sweet tension
That comes with waiting
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1083
Lone black dog trotting
Another lost throwaway
Looking for a home
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1084
My heart always breaks
When I see a homeless dog
It’s not the dog’s fault
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1085
A homeless couple
Had a cute little puppy
And now it is gone
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1086
While she slept soundly
He strangled her lil puppy
Threw it in the ditch
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1087
He is a weak man
Jealous of the attention
She gave her puppy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1088
First it was her dog
And what she does not know yet
Is she will be next
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1089
In my dream last night
The lil puppy had returned
And had grown bigger
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1090
I need to be careful
My iPhone can get cluttered
With the growing tabs
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1091
It can get intense
Limerence is a wild ride
With an abrupt stop
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1092
I’m still sputtering
Over having to brake hard
And grinding my gears
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1093
Need to cool my jets
Take the throttle down a notch
And let things idle
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1094
Flew so very high
I burned up re-entering
The earth’s atmosphere
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1095
It’s been a wild ride
Unexpected twists and turns
Smoother roads ahead
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1096
There is no static
There’s only intensity
That’s unrelenting
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1097
Real time responses
Evolving and mutating
Churning deep waters
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1098
Hidden dog whistles
Like buried treasure await
To be discovered
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1099
I’d rather stay home
To comfort my frightened dog
Who’s scared of thunder
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1100
Picking through the trash
With not a cent to their name
They hope to find luck
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1101
A nearly full moon
Reflecting in a puddle
That the dogs run through
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1102
Lunar reflections
Puddles in concentric rings
Broken up moonglade
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1103
Well before sunrise
Do some night photography
And write poetry
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1104
Escaping a cult
That does human sacrifice
Weird strange dream last night
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1105
Even through the clouds
The full moon’s light shines brightly
Illumination
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1106
Forgotten verses
Spending the dark night outside
Cold and neglected
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1107
Trying to stay warm
With a soaking wet blanket
In January
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1108
Trash in nice gift wrap
Mofo in a G-Wagon
Flexes and namedrops
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1109
Cheap choking perfume
The stench of entitlement
Corrodes all respect
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1110
He fell in the trap
Sprung by some entitled scum
A guy lost his job
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1111
A revolving door
Another one bites the dust
Four more workers gone
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1112
When each new day comes
I never know if that day
Will be my last day
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1113
An obscured skyline
Brown smog over the city
Filtering sunlight
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1114
It’s Opening Day
Baseball madness has begun
I just don’t get it
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1115
People will people
Allowing their ugliness
To take over them
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1116
Forked tongue Antichrist
Hawking his tainted Bibles
To the gullible
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1117
It’s not God who speaks
When they say God hates all fags
It’s projected hate
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1118
God is on their lips
Hate dwells in their stony hearts
Hate is love to them
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1119
Such a naughty dog
She heard other dogs barking
Ran across the street
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1120
Deep in the forest
The trail has gotten quite dark
I can’t see my feet
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1121
Two trucks had arrived
My trail hike got cut too short
I did not feel safe
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1122
In a foreign land
Hot cross buns bring him back home
Across the vast pond
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1123
The small things matter
Like a tiny taste of home
In a hostile land
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1124
When she is silent
I fear my Muse has left me
But she is still here
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1125
With a less rich life
I’d have a much cleaner home
And a sterile soul
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1126
It’s sweet spot weather
Where I need neither heat nor
Air conditioning
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1127
My brain is too full
It is at capacity
There is no more room
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~1128
Window can’t get clean
No windshield wiper fluid
Bird shit on the glass
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1129
My palate prefers
Agave distillations
Viva tequila
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1130
I taste the magic
Of the desert on my lips
Agave whispers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1131
Delusional fool
Believes an Only Fans girl
Has the hots for him
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1132
He’s an old fat slob
Looking for a nurse and purse
And bangmaid to boot
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1133
He makes no effort
There’s nothing on his table
But he’ll eat from yours
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1134
The creative flow
Is plugged up by a log jam
Of sheer exhaustion
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1135
Dogs are on the trail
Some random guy starts yelling
He’s freaked out by them
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1136
It has been awhile
A sweet reunion with friends
The dogs are happy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1137
Religious fruitcakes
Are awaiting The Rapture
When the sun goes dark
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1138
And yet once again
Science will prove them all wrong
And make fools of them
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1139
Keep your religion
At home behind your closed doors
Where it can’t cause harm
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1140
More harm has been done
In the name of religion
Than anything else
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1141
With humans in charge
Religion is a weapon
To oppress others
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1142
The superstitious
Fall victim to ignorance
And their religion
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1143
What is true for some
Is not rightly true for me
Or someone else
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1144
Rapture came and went
No ascension to heaven
There is still traffic
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1145
I opened the door
And in came a blast of moths
Like blowing snowflakes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1146
Where was Morpheus
I waited for him last night
But he stood me up
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1147
Vacation planning
Far more stressful than I thought
How do I relax
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When I get no sleep I’m a diff’rent animal With claws and teeth bared
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~1149
I now understand
A little bit more about
Sleep deprivation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They cannot sleep tight For they are vulnerable Predators abound
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Two cats are sitting
In the middle of the road
Having a stare down
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1152
Freedom rides my train
While furtive cockroaches take
Long deep sips from it
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1153
Motorized wheelchair
Trying to cross the trackway
Towing a large load
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It’s a bit chilly No extra layers for me Gotta walk faster
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1155
Well for the most part they are
After all they’re dogs
1156
She can be spicy
Does not play well with others
Her circle is tight
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1158
Why is there evil
Why can’t all human beings
Be compassionate
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1159
8:30 AM
His cheap-ass bottle of wine
Already half gone
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1160
It’s too much to bear The crushing humanity And its ugliness
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1161
If folks were nicer To people and animals I would engage more
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1162
I am so relieved
The three puppies got scooped up
They’ll soon have new homes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1163
A barometer
Of my emotional state
Such is my haiku
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1164
I made a diff’rence
In the lives of three puppies
Who got abandoned
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1165
This is what I’ve learned
There is nothing like a dog
We need each other
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Illustrated man Is carving up a doll head With his pocket knife
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Texas Instruments
Reverse Polish Notation
For calculations
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1168
A paralysis
Borne of math anxiety
Numbers freeze my brain
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1169
Old college notebooks
Differential equations
That I once could do
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1170
I changed my major
All because of a cute boy
From art to physics
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I stumble through math No elegant equations
With brute force methods
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Young robotic geeks Vying for championship Whose machine will win
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1173
My bestie and I
Video chatted last night
For almost two hours
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1175
Young man on a sign
He looks a lot like Jesus
Shopping at Walmart
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My father exclaimed She’s washing her hair with shit No it’s just henna
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Illumination
By the light of the full moon
There is no dark night
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1178
Dark night of the soul
There’s an empty restlessness
An out of reach itch
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1179
Alienation
Total disenfranchisement
Dark isolation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1180
A bleak existence
Tar pit of meaninglessness
Existential dread
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1181
A numbing routine
And mindless repetition
You don’t want this life
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1182
Well before sunrise
Lone dude with a basketball
Is checking his phone
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A rancid player
Who’s fifty shades of ratchet
Pouts when I say no
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1184
She’s all hips and butt
And she’s not at all even
A Kardashian
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1185
An unpaid day off
Is still a nice treat and break
From the daily grind
1186
Out the door and back
Gone for fourteen hours a day
Bone deep exhaustion
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1187
Expectations dashed
Another disappointment
I’m back at square one
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Could sagging pants be An uncouth resurrection Of long hobble skirts
1189
How did that cute pup
Get stuck with two clowns like those
Borrachos on bikes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On the street corner The junkie and his dealer Transact their business
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1191
Addicted himself The dealer’s not better off Than his customers ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A brisk breeze blowing Clouds scudding across the moon Wild wind waltzing leaves
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1193
Subtropical spring
Where morning temperatures
Are mid seventies
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1194
A windy morning
Thirty-five mile per hour gusts
The trees are talking
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1195
Her son moved away
Her sister cut off all ties
She is abandoned
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1196
This abandonment
She had brought upon herself
As consequences
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1197
They will always bark
When approaching the same spot
Hidden lurking threat
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1198
At last the time came
When all her flying monkeys
Had escaped her thrall
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1199
On her third last chance
Her Teflon coating cannot
Stay slick forever
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1200
A buck twenty-five
Yet folks still act offended
When they’re asked to pay
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1201
It’s the shitty folks
Who will get pissed off at you
When caught doing wrong
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Vacation planning It’s more and more exciting With each passing day
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Driving twelve hours straight Road noise echos in my ears In a cheap motel
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1204
He taught only love
Othering was not His style
Something got twisted
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I’m mainly she/her Once in a very rare while I will be they/them
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1206
I woke up feeling
A large cockroach scurrying
Across my forehead
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1207
Thin lunar sliver
May the waning moon swallow
All that is stagnant
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1208
Let the Dark Moon take
All that’s no longer useful
To make room for good
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1209
I’m sensing a shift
Skimming the near horizon
Making its approach
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
More rain on the way Another flood watch today I felt a raindrop
There once was a time
Where I’d fall into outrage
Without asking why
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1213
It’s idolatry
To worship the conflation
Of the cross and flag
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1214
This land’s biggest threat
Is not those who follow Christ
It’s wolves cloaked as lambs
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Folks looking for work Ride the train clutching papers With job leads on them
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1216
No home to be had
He scavenges for paper
So that he can draw
1217
My dogs are at home While I have to be at work Can’t wait to see them
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1218
I bleed a rainbow
Not for some identity
That’s just how I vibe
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The King of England He raids his mother’s closet Searching for work clothes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The homeless will form Unlikely alliances To survive the streets
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1221
Today’s my birthday
Sixty-six years ‘round the sun
A wild ride so far
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1222
Under a heat dome
Hurricanes and tornadoes
Summer is starting
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1223
Not in my lifetime
Will I see America
Be a kinder place
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1224
It’s a sick system
That does not know it’s rotting
That’s patriarchy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1225
I stopped in my tracks
To hear the cicadas sing
They are waking up
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1226
While in ATX
There’s a trajectory shift
That changes my course
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1227
She showed me her world
Master crafted high living
Homeless guardians
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I love my two dogs My sweet canine companions A perfect balance
1229
They don’t know better
It’s not something exotic
It’s a way of life
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What I wanted was To experience her world And be part of it
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1231
Epigenetics
Conflict deescalation
That’s in women’s genes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1232
Men do not get it
Women don’t feel safe with them
They aren’t protectors
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1233
The patriarchy
A very toxic poison
Humanity drinks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1234
Find other sources
Don’t drink from the poisoned well
That’s killing us all
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1235
I love my freedom
I enjoy my peace of mind
Team Bear all the way
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ink under my skin I am itching to get more Another tattoo
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1237
A little lost dog
Found itself at my front door
Setting off my dogs
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just under three hours Is fast for a coroner To arrive on scene
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1240
I ask this question
How is the universe kind
Everyone dies
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1241
Some deaths aren’t timely
They may come out of nowhere
With great violence
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1242
Now that they are dead
It does not matter to them
That their kids are jerks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1243
Wish I could trade spots
With the gal ripping a bong
Behind the platform
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A rooster’s crowing Inserts syncopated beats In between owl hoots ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1245
Summer’s almost here
The preheating has begun
Four infernal months
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1246
They follow Jesus
Yet Jesus Christ would never
Condone their actions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1248
Friends with benefits
Rarely will a relationship
Result from that
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1249
Two old dudes strutting
They keep in step together
Their canes synchronized
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1250
The orange menace
An enemy of the state
Deceiving millions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1251
Their fear is misplaced
More lil children have been hurt
By them than drag queens
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1252
Demonized queer folk
Have far less blood on their hands
Than their accusers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1253
A nation of fools
Will choose the biggest buffoon
To be their leader
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1254
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1255
It is a perfect balance
They’re my family
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1256
Composting decay
Enriching the earth with death
To support new life
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Existing alone For many that brings panic For me it brings peace
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1258
He gets on the train
Absentmindedly leaving
All his bags behind
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1259
The train starts moving
He realizes his mistake
I hear him yell shit
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1260
At the dark signal
Autos play Russian roulette
As they speed on through
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1262 My arms are loaded Torn basket of shattered glass I emerge from hell
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1263
Memories on film Washed away by acid tears Burn holes in my soul
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1264
It rains in my heart Cyanide tears watering Flowers of evil
Il pleut dans mon coeur Larmes de cyanure pleurent Sur les fleurs du mal ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Soothing and rocking A drowsy rainy morning He dozed on the train
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hot Sunday morning Dogs panting in the back seat Going for a ride ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1268
Unsuspecting dogs Excited in the back seat Heading to be dumped
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1269
People don’t listen I said I would bring my dog They went out to eat
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1270
Just because I can Think it does not mean that I Will ever do it ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1271 Mosquito netting And a pith helmet complete My safari look ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sometimes people do The unthinkable when faced With tough decisions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1273
Deluded Christian
Fascists refuse to accept
Jesus was not white
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Austin my Austin Oh what terrible longing I possess for thee
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1275
Logistics be damned Finances be damned as well I will find my way
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1276
When I first saw you
Ever since twenty-thirteen
You captured my heart
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1277
For over ten years
A quite deep and fierce yearning
Seeped into my bones
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1278
Why can I not hold
In tight embrace in my arms
That for which I yearn
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1279
Rasputin greets us
In a place that’s here nor there
With drinks on a tray
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1280
Houston can go suck
My metaphorical dick
I swear I won’t come
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just like my divorce I need to make plans and wait For the right moment ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1282
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1284
Heed the stern warning
Mama’s rule DON’T fuck the dolls
They will fuck you back
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1285
Cicadas chanting
Loud treetop incantations
As the sun beats down
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1286
Sometimes talkative
Other times my Muse remains
Tight lipped and silent
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1287
I cannot always
Coerce creativity
To flow on demand
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1288
A wrong way driver
Startles on his fast approach
On the railroad bridge
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1289
Different faces
Of homelessness populate
The mean city streets
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1290
I now know their names
The Black gal and her red dog
Sondra and Bobo
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1291
Why so many folks
With missing appendages
Could it be a trend
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1292
Unearned privilege
Rides the breeze like a balloon
Slowly deflating
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1293
Playing the system
And getting away with it
Like no one else could
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1294
Stay invisible
Flying under the radar
Unseen and unscathed
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1295
I try not to long
Longing brings on more longing
Keeps the prize away
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1296
Nature is not fair
Society is not fair
And life is not fair
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~1297
The train approaches
Dude does not even look up
While crossing its path
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1298
Less than twenty bucks
Is collected each day from
The ticket machines
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1299
Flowers have secrets
Whispering magnolias
Give ginger kisses
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1300
Independence Day
This country does not deserve
A birthday party
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1301
Tapped on her window
And threatened to shoot her in
The back of her head
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1302
Twisting his nipples
I immediately knew
That he was trouble
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1303
So many lawyers
Advertising on billboards
Cluttering the view
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1304
Good Christian driver
Cross hanging from his mirror
Drives like an asshole
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1305
He gets off the train
Tries to cross in front of it
As it moves forward
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1306
Car does not slow down
Rushes the intersection
As the train crosses
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1307
Not the guy I thought
He let his privilege show
I lost all respect
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1308
Those part of a group
Are easily blind to faults
Others clearly see
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1309
When one sees attacks
Where none have been intended
One needs to ask why
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1310
Triggers are useful
They point to where we need to
Focus on healing
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1311
Look at religion
As an inkblot test that shows
What’s inside people
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1312
Dogs are much better
Friends and companions than
Mediocre men
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1313
Started editing
It’s a very scary task
So overwhelming
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1314
Hurricane season
We’re being hit by Beryl
The dogs are alone
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1315
Four days no power
Put lipstick on in the dark
Get dressed by flashlight
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1316
The wind took my words
Ripped them from my melting heart
Scattered them like leaves
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1317
Storm debris gathered
Life gets put back together
Words are uncovered
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1318
Wind blowing fiercely
Small tree keeps it together
Bending not breaking
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1319
Fences had blown down
Liberating many dogs
Confined within them
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1320
my naïveté
made me the perfect target
on dating apps
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1321
online predators
desperate and lonely men
lying through their teeth
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1322
i will not settle
for men whose bars are so low
they’re burning in hell
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1323
we are the product
we’re bargain appliances
on the dating apps
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1324
i count syllables
like an ADHD chimp
swings from word to word
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1325
getting nearly full
silver moon patiently waits
for werewolves to hunt
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1326
there is no safe place
monsters real and imagined
hiding in plain sight
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1327
consumed by my house
taking huge bites out of me
bleeding me bone dry
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1328
his wife does not know
he’s talking to an old friend
he’s attracted to
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1329
sis is mistaken
to think that i will pick up
her burgeoning tab
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1330
we both got hit up
by careless needy spendthrifts
looking for bailouts
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1331
the storm is brewing
a tempest in a teapot
swirling bitter dregs
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1332
i’ve not much to hide
i’m an open book with some
redacted pages
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1333
instagram snitches
report back to her my words
she sends me screenshots
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1334
her flying monkeys
exist only to serve her
with blind allegiance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1335
one leak found and blocked
there could be unknown others
i’ll check my email
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1336
five months of silence
she emerged to provoke me
so predictable
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1337
recruited lackeys
can’t see the truth that took me
six decades to find
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1338
i am not upset
my muse is quite grateful for
the inspiration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1339
thanks to her highness
for feeding my hungry muse
she is satisfied
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1340
passive aggression
that is how she rolls because
honesty’s too clean
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1341
he made it ugly
in the way that only he
could make it ugly
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1342
his love is a lie
designed for entrapment and
manipulation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1343
she offered him help
but got the silent treatment
he wanted money
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1344
we both got hit up
with big demands for money
we gave them nothing
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1345
alcoholic sis
has nothing better to do
than to stir up shit
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1346
our shared dna
is not good enough reason
to pledge loyalty
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1347
a far-off blank stare
is all her slurred words receive
when she lambasts me
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1348
when her husband died
my eyes were ripped wide open
i saw what she was
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1349
won’t lift a finger
people exist to serve her
and do her bidding
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1351
the last crack is sealed
i’ve become invisible
to prying stalkers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1352
no more drops of tea
will reach her foul corrupt lips
let her die of thirst
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1353
now that i’ve gone dark
passive aggressive emails
no longer reach me
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1354
promotions given
to baby mamas for their
service and silence
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1355
cringey words spoken
while sergeant schultz looked away
who would believe her?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1356
he learned the hard way
that confiding in a snitch
would cost him his job
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1357
nobody likes her
she is not a good worker
yet she keeps her job
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1358
never in trouble
always missing in action
he works the system
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1359
it’s not just women
who get creepy vibes from him
men avoid him too
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1360
it did not feel right
when he asked to touch her hair
he’s her boss dammit
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1361
while licking his lips
tells her he’ll make her forget
she’s a lesbian
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1362
she’s white chocolate
he calls her his favorite
did she step in shit?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1363
praising jesus and
inappropriate comments
come from the same lips
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1364
me too means nothing
he will keep on preying on
two X chromosomes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1365
it’s his dark secret
he loves his daughter far more
than a father should
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1366
he does not like her
in fact he really hates her
but he’ll still fuck her
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1367
surreptitious sips
beer can in a paper bag
drunk by 8 AM
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1368
they pick and choose their
causes like they pick and choose
their bible verses
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1369
butt hurt hypocrites
crying out when they get called
out on their bullshit
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1370
allow me the right
to not have your religion
shoved hard in my face
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1372
ask them anything
exciting perspective and
omphaloskepsis
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1373
all dreams possible
under the shroud of darkness
flow to fruition
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1374
as the young moon grows
it brings great realization
to my heartfelt dreams
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1375
by my words uttered
by my will i thus decree
and so mote it be
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1376
too clumsy to grasp
my words mutate into dense
frozen metal spheres
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1377
tripping on something
brain chemistry is altered
through deep psychosis
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1379
once human cargo
indentured to coyotes
she now hawks flowers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1380
a cute bungalow
in a hip part of austin
that’s one of my dreams
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1381

we each have different dreams
and aspirations
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1382
sweet agave dreams
sipping on tequila neat
soaking up the vibes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1383
day in and day out
i am part of the landscape
while i’m on the clock
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1384
she burns all bridges
and scorches the barren earth
she once tread upon
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1385
neurodivergent
counts ev’rything on fingers
and measured out steps
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1386
it’s masochistic
pain frustration agony
those damn dating apps
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1387
not online dating
more like online pimping where
women are products
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1388
bone deep exhaustion
clenched in frozen inertia
i’m running on fumes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1389
less than a week left
until i’m on vacation
i intend to rest
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1390
toxic work culture
reactive not proactive
pawns set up to fail
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1391
curiosity
did it kill schrödinger’s cat
or resurrect it
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1392
try to imagine
a human society
that imitates bees
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1393
he is twenty-eight
he has been on the street since
he was seventeen
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1394
he has no one here
mom is in choctaw and
dad’s drunk somewhere else
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1395
he has no way of
letting his family know
that he’s still alive
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1396
stolen sign in hand
blood pressure cuff on his arm
he tells me he’s stressed
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1397
smudges on cardboard
a silent scream emerges
on the stolen sign
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1398
the street consumes him
bite by bite chewing up hope
spitting out despair
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1399
the end of the line
i wish him well as he leaves
i’ll see him again
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1400
when we meet again
perhaps i’ll ask him how he
wound up on the street
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1401
how will this unfold
stories waiting to be told
more words to behold
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1402
life speeding on by
trapped in an out-of-control
and runaway train
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1403
she wants to cheat death
and become more than human
she will die trying
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

a toxic childhood
sappy sentimentalists
spinning nostalgia

off to a rough start
a dying car battery
generates panic
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1406
rumination spins
methamphetamine monkeys
body slam my brain
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1407
it’s not a safe place
something bad happened here
the vibe still lingers

1408
weird dreams disturb me
wake me from a solid sleep
monkeys are released

in a dark grey room
ancient trees within four walls
are trapped and confined

when valerian beckons
and invites him in

ghost on the train speaks
suicide’s not the way out

1412
a tossed word salad
ketchup splashing on the walls
shit sticks where it’s flung
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1413
i need to take out
those monkeys with a dart gun
and tranquilize them
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1414
maybe not all men
but ev’ryone was a man
who killed out of rage
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1415
how do I know things
a snake whispers in my ear
and shares its secrets
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1416
i am living my
best life in austin texas
it’s a dream come true

feral existence
abandoned lost forgotten
desamparados
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1420
illumined shadows
by embracing the darkness
i invite the light
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1421
which is easier
to wish for a million bucks
or wish someone gone

stuck where i am stuck right now
focus needs to shift

in a very small package
kept me up all night

some creep’s mouth that looks like a
puckering asshole
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

major overwhelm
executive functioning
is shot straight to hell

pushing clouds across the sky
revealing bright stars

he begged me to not
tell his best friend that he fucked
his best friend’s daughter

as long as they thirst
for an oozing orifice
they will wet their dicks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1444
she is an old maid
with an infatuation
for her parish priest
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1445

the perpetual old maid
had never orgasmed

but never ever broken
she keeps his secrets
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1450
let me share with y’all
this tale of a church lady
and her parish priest
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1451
while still very young
he realized that his mother
was not a mother
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1452
in their sunday best
besotted church ladies fight
for father’s favors
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1453
there was this one priest
who was the target of her
infatuation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1454
he did not return
her affection and besides
she was not his type
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1455
he was made bishop
sent to a far remote place
she wept while she prayed
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1456
her dreams had been dashed
her desperate hunt now targets
parish men and boys
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1457
something about her
makes the menfolk uneasy
whenever she’s near
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1458
there’s only one man
who is unperturbed by her
she has what he needs
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1459
a hungry jackal
he smells her desperation
his lust salivates
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1460
he’s an aging priest
who’s anxious to slake the thirst
of his aching groin
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1461
there’s no need to see
the bulge under his cassock
to know his intent
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1462
she would not have it
reported him to the church
let them deal with him
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1463
the church defrocked him
took away all his vestments
and then cut him loose
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1464
disgraced by the church
he established his own church
in an old trailer
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1465

his sunday service
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1466
inbred swamp yankees
sacrifice their daughters and
wives for his blessing
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1467
no chance of being
a sacred bride to a priest
she lowered her bar
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1468
choices exhausted
she casts her net far out in
a polluted pond
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1469
a small time felon
who burglarized old ladies
caught her desp’rate eye
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1470
no speculation
romance was not plausible
no one was convinced
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1471
delusions indulged
gossip continues to flow
with each new rumor
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1472
longing for something
a snitching flying monkey
is once more thwarted
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1473
she was abandoned
once she lost her usefulness
to a conning friend
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1474
yet she’s still too dense
to know the meaning of fuck
around and find out
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1475
it’s the same story
that repeats over again
with diff’rent players
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1476

instead a he hole

dangerous people
are allowed to ride because
they bring in money
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1452
instead of safety
for their workers and patrons
they choose the dollar
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1453
they say they listen
but if that were really true
there’d be improvements
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1454
read between the lines
that’s where the information
one seeks will be found
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1455

is often more important
than that which was said

when two towers fell
a stunned nation reeled in shock
the sky grew silent
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

stuck in a time warp
of some bygone glory days
old age seeks escape
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

self satisfied skater boy
grins broadly with glee
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

hides ev’rything else

a distillation of words
savored in small sips

when i am at work
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1465

much fun of me when i sang
she silenced my voice
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1466

i was not good at singing
and other such lies
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1467
it took me decades
to unravel all the lies
that i was force fed
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1468
old wounds uncovered
digging deeper to find more
my healing journey
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1469
if one thing’s a lie
how can i be sure about
all the other things
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1470
always remember
lies never travel alone
question ev’rything
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1471
if there is one lie
there’ll be more from where it came
don’t get fooled again
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1472
i am not my job
it’s not my identity
it’s just a paycheck
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1473
if i had known then
what i know right now i would
have left much sooner
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1474
but i was blinded
by cognitive distortion
that kept me tethered
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1475
he said i could leave
but he threatened to fight me
for full custody
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1476
he held the chain tight
tail between a whipped dog’s legs
i choked on my heart
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1477
i knew in my heart
she would not be safe with him
i could not lose her
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1478
i did what i could
and sacrificed my freedom
kept her safe from him
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1479
it can stand alone
but it makes more sense to see
what’s on either side
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1480
because i feel peace
the decision i had made
was the right choice
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1505
what is limitless
cannot be comprehended
by the limited
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1506
we can’t comprehend
what is beyond our senses
we can only feel
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1507
the dangerous fools
are those who claim to know god
and god’s intentions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1508
bad played off as good
good presented as evil
fools cannot discern
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1509
thinning of the veils
the dead pass through to mingle
with cherished loved ones
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1510
you’re wild and untamed
yet you’re docile in my arms
willing sacrifice
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1511
you’re over my head
i’m going against the grain
grabbing by the throat
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1512
i am much disturbed
i do not want to hurt you
don’t make me do this
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1513
in the box you go
a cold and airless chamber
frozen innocence
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1514
in between your paws
rests the velveteen rabbit
guiding psychopomp
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1515
i close the chamber
to freezing suffocation
and i walk away
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1516
while you leap and bound
across the frozen tundra
to the otherworld
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1517
where you’ll wait for me
and share your secrets with me
when i cross the hedge
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1518
their dicks make them lie
weaponized incompetence
no woman wants them
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1519
luck ran out on love
desperate passport bros hunt
bang maids overseas
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1520
i am not surprised
at the blind stupidity
i’m just disgusted
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1521
aggressive cancer
threatening democracy
chemotherapy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1522
tiny little hands
chokehold on democracy
heil dictatorship
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1523
the orange führer
awaits his coronation
while putin dances
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1524
i would not feel bad
if he choked on a cheeto
let him burn in hell
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1525
interesting times
coming at us at warp speed
strap yourselves in tight
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1526
it bears repeating
going forward sometimes feels
like going backward
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1527
a bitter harvest
shall be reaped from the seeds sown
by america
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1528
it’s ok to grieve
it’s even ok to rage
but please don’t despair
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1529
always seek beauty
for if you cannot find it
they’ve already won
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1530
in times of darkness
despair’s their deadly weapon
always choose hope
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1531
soon enough the fools
will reap their bitter harvest
while blaming others
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1532
we can’t remain friends
cuz your choice has endangered
those i care about
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1533
privilege to choose
comes with my right to question
and dissociate
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1534
choices made by fools
will come with consequences
that fools cannot grasp
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1535
sucked into a cult
unreachable by reason
they choose a monster
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1536
scary orange clown
and his sofa king sidekick
dance with no left feet
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1537
grief can be profound
when friendships can’t be sustained
because of choices
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1538
the grooming starts with
psychopath men creating
god in their image
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1539
fools always choose fools
for fools do not know better
because they are fools
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
