Recall that god-awful day
you went walking to escape
scuffed and sulked
your way across the soggy ground
dragging blackened shoe stings
until you found that Cardinal feather
gleaming in the grey.
Its radiance mocked you

In the barren garden
lie abandoned bags
of Miracle Grow
scattered around brown skeletons
that stand in frozen protest.

Living up to expectations

Gaining fertility
Mortality recession

Running stares as bare beating feet
Dazed in this haze of disbelief

Butterflies
beat against the walls of my stomach
Bile
rises up tickling my gag reflex
Tremors
reluctantly allow my hands to function
Poison

Crawling

I just
Want to lay in the mud.
Dark wet heavy mud.
That will cake my skin
And then crack and peel off
In brittle brown earth chunks.

Alive! She cried Waiting for me on the out-SIDE
Words uttered and used in jest they were the best the best of times. Do you ever think of me and those times we had all those nights we spent now those mysteries and legends we created under blankets are spared life will never come to

Life
sounds like
knife-
a jagged sharp
ockam's razor.
Purpose
sounds like
porpoise-
a mammal in a
sea of fish.
