My brain can't process this so it came out as writing / Contact / White Moths

been a long time since I've wrote,

when the cherry trees dropped their blooms,

and we'd scooped up the dew with the angels,

the find the moment of sighs,

and realized

the bridge we'd never crossed.


To wait for morning,

or the morning you expect,

An errand for an old man looking across frozen waters,

Late October days that held breathless jade skies against the horizon.

Rain and diminishing storms asking for dissolution, 

is this the way we let ourselves evaporate 

to a kind stranger?


Under a shared pain you were discovered,

or. a. shared. island.

sanity in the pain and madness,

your presence in raw sadness

and anger,

red tears,

fear, fire. regret for the ire I never set in stone.

I look at the cold ground and lick the char in the underground.

my blackened dreams are full of flight.

Escape, haunted houses, rotted confused staircases burst into ten-thousand black butterflies

A place to lick blood and set alight the whining bookended whistles of the day.

one chance, to more walk alone in the lands to pave stones and walk home

to say goodbye and hello 

to hate and love the power

to let go.

Fool's illusions Tempt The Bright Light That Rolls Together

Fool's illusions Tempt The Bright Light That Rolls Together 


Life is so sweet, 

and sometimes bitter.

And occasionally the light leaks through the frozen mouth of winter. 

To where our thoughts can't be contained, lassie.

They’re strained through the fjords in their rocky gutters; 

To run down via the pathway of tawny temptress’ spells.

Fly free into yon breeds for each heaven, may ye may go,

To every fruit of the fountain and flowers, where we’ll flow together.

Fool's illusions tempt the bright light that rolls together Uncomfortable and alone.

Unless / Victory / Crime

 Fate seems granular, it comes through in texture,

so shocking in the moments, granted grace via the patina of time

corrected perceptions of real, the seams...smoothing out via smothering the previous

("trouble, I have paid my debt, won't you leave me in my misery?")


A through-line is no longer available, unless you're a towing a car without proof.

A long line drags on time, before the plum of destiny drops to rot 

like soldiers in a field, where have we gone, to the beating of drums?

("She partakes of lifting the gate between the possible and invisible")


These fires, the orange skies of memory. The dust...

Will these deaths combust

what's left

of us?


No forwarding address for heroes who've gone.

Foundations and institutions...and graves.

The price of persistence, of the perception of victory

in focused pestilence. People And Poxes Create Boxes

(fire / braces) (kick) (trumpets)


You will not be king. 

This game is rigged.

We're overwhelmed by extremes in just this overarching un-eternal now.

Where the quiet reigns in shadows for the unabsolved act, like the eternal shame that goes nameless

into ever brighter colors for the memory-less future to shoulder...

We'll evaporate. (The forrest is haunted with burning trees)

Asleep in a blurred crusade

I am aware,

That the time

between us is limited. 

Water, sand and time all trickle.

we share clocks and calendars in the ether,


So, okay for indefinite fixtures that soon grow wild,

sleep, or waiting(waxing), no wings are grown or aligned, unspoken/unfurled, 

murdered and wise where fishes' tails drift into memory 


Don't be startled,

the cork is off the bottle,

the genie lives, 

escaped.
