Lighthouse

Don’t desert me out here in the wildernesswhere anything can be born out of the surfor tangled masses past the tree linewhere the light has trouble shiningthrough the canopy. I want to steer the boat while you supplymomentum with the riveras it carries us along.I want to carve cheesy quotes into the oarslike we traveling […]

Faded

We live off what is bad for us.The taste of tar while drivingmy old car across a region,I’ve been hanging in forever.I’m okay with going home early,or never really going out at all,since there are days worth whatwaits quietly alone. The trailer park is filled with porch swingsno one uses and old rustedbikes left around […]

Insolate

Orchids chew on sunbeamswhile they nod at all the silentpassing humming birds.I kill them with a spadeI took from a garden shedin an overgrown section of the forest,no one knew about but me.

Ruin

Every morning I drivestraight into the daylight becausebecause I’m looking forwhat’s on the other side.Every night I have a dream,that I am sinking in a river,underneath a bunch of bridgesI don’t recognize. We make light dance for us nowwhen before we would circlearound a fire and dance for it.It was a pit of somethingnot quite […]
