- the crushing weight of casual
goodbyes, consuming
every aspect of my being.
- living in
between the
sheets,
day, to day.
- The hot steam
collides with
the huge
snowflakes.
Just talking
is enough.
- Sun swept across the
cushioned car seats,
wind beneath feet,
shimmering wet
pavement of promise--
It's all out of control.
- Heavy snow
falls secretly
and in silence,
erasing color
from the yard
- High-centered, snow locked,
withered, frayed snapped
tow strap,
soggy cold toes
puddly floor boards
spinning, rubber burning
tires.
- The giddy stare of animalistic 8th graders
Sinks into my crumbling shoulders,
Denim jackets, Kohls' t-shirts, and
Sketchers' Shape-Up are
In a Rage.
- Sitting in an uncomfortable lawn chair,
I absentmindedly assist the
already peeling black paint to
liberation.
- The halls are empty,
The silence is overwhelming,
As I scream back-
Alone.
I am enveloped in the empty sound
Infinite.
- Smashing ripe fruits to a pulp,
A tornado of flavor,
and color.
- Wasting body,
revived in Heaven.
The breathing out of old
photo albums.
- Cold seat
In hot heat
eyes glass
can't feel my feet
- The screaming
echos
till it rings
in silence
- Warmth raging
through chilled
oak veins
- Sitting in class
staring through the
smart board into
a world that
never was.
- She braces, as the roaring
airplane and the runway
are reacquainted once more.
- Chimichanga in
Chimichanga out
You don't want to know what's inbetween.
- The somber
sounds of a sleepless
sorrow.
- Eyes stitched shut,
Body lay limp,
The feeling of self
Loathing is abundant,
Taco Bell Hangover.
- Sun bursts
through cracked
white doors
- I'm like a
baby's bottom
Smooth
And sometimes
EXPLOSIVE
- As she ate
chicken noodle
soup and
sobbed,
she revealed a
heart,
a life,
that has been
robbed.
- Fortified skyline,
clouds dipped in gold
returning,
becoming home.
- The warm sun shines
on my cool white
skin.
- Lipstick stained coffee
cup, out of place in
the native lands of New Mexico.
- I couldn't see.
Ringing in my ears.
Is the movie over?
- The mountain grew
in a parallel to my pain.
"Back again I see,"
as she hands me my
TacoBell
- A dog
A frog
A log
the sweet swamp
music sound
A velociraptor.
- Fiery tears of rage
rolled from her
eyes. Disappointment
forced its way
up her throat only
to be shoved back
down by the hatred
she felt for him.
- I'm quiet and wild
like dry ice.
