where you are here. [04 Mar 2006|10:08am]
my favorite place is still and silent darkness
i can wrap my hands around myself
and curl into the imaginary.
i can feel your breath come and the walls expand to you.
encompassed by warmth
i feel.
you are here
my eyes close and my warm hands creep around
i feel nothing
and i remember it is only imaginary.

i can feel the road beneath me.
and the wind beside me,
and accross my fingertips.
i can close my eyes and be anywhere.

there is an ocean of freedom inside of us.
fall back
and
swim.

after it rains,
the autumn scent.
while my feet touch earth
i watch to see
the flowers smile.

tonight barbara took me out and it was really nice.
she helped me dye my hair
and then she gave me a bunch of clothes and a ring that is really beautiful.
then we went to a bar and i laughed a lot, and it felt really good.
then she took me home
and we listened to death cab for cutie, and somebody should have told me how good they are a long time ago.
she gave me two cds
and i am going upstairs to listen to them.
and then i will fall asleep
and tomorrow is carbondale.

so long la poeta [19 Aug 2005|10:52pm]
at night things are still
no voices,
only thunder echoes through me.
i find a void
impossible
rock solid
and uncarvable.
everybody sleeps
not silent sleep
they walk
and moan in universal disharmony.

i asked when we would ever be happy
two people
picturesque
like memories of eachother under moons
or the sunrise.
and i remembered in those memories i asked
'when will we ever be happy'
and no sound came
only thunder to echo through me.

drive by life. [24 May 2005|09:50am]
the wind is strong
and there is a lot of rain.
the days are cold
and the nights

from the window
the ocean crashes hard into the marsh
and the trees blow violent against grey sky.

i see the lighthouse through the fog
and the birds fly, long wings
from the day
into the night.

ajna has his first tooth
and he likes to bite.
it is cute, but it hurts.

i think we are leaving here soon.

thursday, march seventeenth. oh five. [17 Mar 2005|01:05am]
[ mood | exhausted ]

tonight was nice.
kelly and i talked and it felt good.
she gave me strawberry koala yummies.
which is great.

i am feeling sick and out of breath.
and ajna has been coughing.

i am getting to know myself
and he is what i've found:
i like car rides
and the moon.
i like photographs
and taking them.
i like watching you paint.
honey wheat pretzels.
and mid day naps.
i like to make juice
and write poetry.
and sleep on your chest while you drive.
and watch the clouds make pictures.
i like to go for walks.
and think of nothing.
i like to listen to the moment.
i like jeans.
but not more than skirts.
and peacock feathers
and the sound of a heartbeat.
and my sons hands when they reach for me.
i like my cat.
i like unexpected phone calls
and bare feet.
i like bluegrass.
and jazz the best.
especially in small towns
on dreary days
or on a dreary ride.
i like the silence
and the dark.
and the sun on the tile floor in the daytime.
i like dancing
and jokes
and my stepsister
and her hugs.
i like open windows
i like pocky.
and koala yummies, of course.
i like to sleep on the floor.
and sit on it.
i like my hands in pictures.
but not in person.
i like flowers and love poems and mix tapes and sex.
and i like missing you, because it's new.
and it makes me appreciate.
i like the universe.

i dont like sore throats. and cold mornings. or cold nights. or winter when it should be getting warm.
i dont like shallow breath.
and anger.


i've been getting to know myself.
and my world.

and now: sleep.
