Made it real for a second

And I was thinking I was thinking I was thinking I was thinking why not… live the moment the touch the light in the dark What end would that bring if it smells like a newly born minute that spreads beneath our hands And I was thinking thinking remembering closing my eyes Why not… live while [...]

Où c’que j’saigne

Blame everywhere I just don't see Blame, in your eyes Mine are still open though Les mots, les mots Sous mes yeux Blame Look, see, read I'm still looking Not blind yet From the blame Et toi, tu vois?

Feet on the ground

It's such an odd feeling to not know what life holds for me at this very moment, yet to know that it holds so much more than it did yesterday. I'm numb, then hurt, then elated, then insecure, then determined. Mostly, I think, I think this is coming… Freedom. In thought, in breath, in being. [...]

Fell

The night has fallen. Suns died.  The knight has fallen. Sons cried. All around the smell of standing still for lives that never came. Only dust the herald of hollow memories.

That simple

Mundane certainly. So fucking ordinary it would tank at the box office, that stupid story. That thing. That big wad of gum stuck under my shoe. But in a linear situation, where facts cannot be more usual, lies complexities, astounding.    I'm so tired, I haven't slept a winkI'm so tired, my mind is on [...]

Introducing a new pronoun

And I wanted to tell you something sweet. Something that didn't hurt. But despite my good will, I am silenced, the words trapped. The right ones. The ones that belong. I never used you before, I always was sufficient. Then you. So I. You hold a mirror that I want shattered. But you hold it [...]

Defrag, scandisk et al

Deleted. Not yet. Not quite. Coming back. Regaining some kind of human form. The deletion amplifying as my mind eases into a comfortable position.  Like passes. Like a file cleaner. How many passes should I allow? Complete irradication. Or traces. Lost file fragments. Things are starting to make sense again. Reality is not hiding, not [...]

If a tree falls, it falls

I heard it. I turned around and watched it finish it's course at my feet. The tree fell. The ground wavered. The roots ripped open the earth and I cried. Infernal noise as tendrils of life let go of the giving soil. My shouts muffled, green leaves spilling their tears in my mouth.  The branches [...]

A lesson

Something. Something in the history that we wanted to write. That will never make it in the books. Jumping was the easy part. But climbing out became our daily gamble. What was there to lose but frowns upon our good life? Sill, stalled on the lips of the well, sitting and waiting and thinking about [...]

11pm

A 90 minutes walk, a note book. It was really humid and the thick pages were soft and yielding. Blue ink on purple matrix. It looked black on gray under the lamp post. The mandatory mist around its light making me remember nothing. Only to check on my podometer once in a while. And to [...]

Guide

Little by little the night turns around -Set the controls for the heart of the sun click up here… still can't put in a player.   Everyone is lost. No one is safe on their paths. Some have strayed further than others, and might struggle a little harder to come back. We are looking around. [...]

Past in fall

A silence I bred through smiles and being there was never enough. An empty inbox as my soul ready to burst from need not real. There was nothing, I was nothing, until and then and now. A start line as elusive as a wolf's smile. A finish as definite as the last drop of cum [...]

I and there

Around the bendAround, it's somewhere, right here Across the divided earthOver the fantastic hills I can climb anythingI can jump as high as… yes, that high A slow tumble towards the endA soft landing for my balance was near perfect No scabs to pickNothing to call home about Just a few more miles, jumps, steps, [...]

Still summer

You don't need to know what I do all day, It's as much as I know watch it waste away -Wolfmother/Vagabond (click) Oh, I saw colors, colors, colors flooding the day Filled me with smiles and questions and visions They drove me and I drove them and we got there The colors, everywhere, free of bonds, [...]
