Maybe you will show my pictures to a boy who said he loved me when we were young,
and has become used to remembering me.
Maybe you will show my pictures to my grandparents, let them know I loved to have fun,
had friends that cared,
a world for them to share.
Maybe you will put my picture in a frame, a face your new friends can't name
they will wonder why I never come to your parties.
Maybe you will talk quietly to me, all the things you never said
kept safe with the dead
and I will be there for you.
Maybe you will ignore my picture, let it become a wall-hanging in a house you spend most of your time away from
and I will gather dust in your kitchen
and I will gather dust in my 2D world.

I See the Glowing Eyes of The Sun
I saw the sun set over the ocean.
I saw the sun set over you and I, over everything I have known a town that
let me sink into it a dead-end
I dead heart thrown into decay spinning angels
came down from the cities, from the mountains to whisper to me in the night
and I don't feel welcome anywhere though, I don't know who I am or how to offer myself to anyone.
I am lovesick, I am so, so alone. I can see you all, smiling and laughing.
Derranged in fabulous dresses bursting forth in sexual waves of absolute splendour and I am
slack on the tarmac, dead inside of myself a sedentary ocean.
Flat.
A Poem About Work
FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK
FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK
FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK.
Fury.
I want to be 15 again, my heart aches for that sadness the absolute resounding desolation of beige walls
1am
I think it was always 1am
future heroin addicts on the end of the line,
blonde freakshows,
skinny movie nerds,
disgusting dropouts confessing their love for serial killers
for Hitler,
for abstract philosophers,
for me.
Dead, sordid winds oozing over stagnant palm trees,
the same light bulb glowing in the same window over and over again, night after night.
Huge electrical towers buzzing into fucking beige gravel that
whole fucking place
Beige.
Alone on the sinking couch, trying not to make any noise, 1am again
G
I am Yours, Now
The end of the line in this woman's purse
hope garnered from a hair covered Starburst
a discarded ID she keeps because it was her first
What holds together this tiny universe?
