100

i think i can count
to about one hundred but
i think i'll need help

[ ]

i fell in a hole
came out the other side and
again saw nothing

revelation

i don't love my life
so much as to shrink from death;
whole milk is holy.

o death, i will be
your plagues, man-killed child-- the ghost
who looks in. yes, death,

where is your sting? i
fear silent gaps where kraken
wait to devour me.

shame

shrug it off like flies
from a corpse and pack up-- your
mountain can come too.

chastity

an iron dress-- white,
which is supposed to mean pure
and whole, but really

means easier to
dirty, one more thing to clean--
bodiless and cold.

a thousand and one

i just saw we hit
one thousand visits and i'm
pretty pumped, for sure.

dependance

for a brief moment
i lost power in my house
and i was helpless

friday last

we started at two
thirty and raced the sun back
to our flats, then crashed.
