no parking

the city is loud,
where silence is unheard of.
don't stop or stand here.

missing

i am weak without
you, my source of energy,
my pillar of strength

saying goodbye

i shed parting tears
bitter as separation,
my beautiful friend

for here or to go

waiting downtown in
a corner coffee shop I
write out my heart

meditating on the city

people watching as
lives flow through crosswalks or stop
at red traffic lights

downpour

fogs cloud my vision
rain beats against the window
i look at nothing

#123

i put cinnamon
in my pasta sauce today.
surprisingly good.

#122

as i emerge, she
retreats. roommates can be a
strange phenomena.

roll the stone

every time i try
to sneak outside for a smoke
my cats look at me.

(>_<)

today i found out
that we have a "sister site"
same name, but dot com.

surprise

i moved across the
sea for you and now i can't
promise anything

#21

It doesn't make sense
The phrase uttered 'round the world
refrigerator

Invocation against Interlopers

Lord, keep your rumored
all-knowing eyes from seeking
out the dark secrets of

my damp and shadowed
sheets. I'm not your child, only
a private woman

loving a quiet
man, thrilling in vice, and my
earnings remain mine.

You who --so I heard--
breathed my name at conception,
wrote my life in your

Book of Life, told my
sordid tale in black and white--
just leave me alone.

now it's in your head too

never gonna give
you up, never gonna make
you cry or hurt you.

apes had it all wrong

i now open my
bananas with a pocket
knife. no more string stuff.
