Today we shared some of my neighbor’s famous Argentinean recipes.

It was an ancient mate recipe which it is said to awaken your inner most frightening demons.

Mr. Bojangles came rushing in from the back of my pineal gland exciting the nerves itching from inside the brain down to the core of my spine

The gift of your breathe

The continuous rythym of your heartbeat

The sweet sound of your cries

All things I will never know

And though you were not fit for life

You were the only life I treasured so

With tears I expect your departure

Not fully formed

movements of your tiny body

So perfect.

The past three days

small speckled narcotics for the pain

claimed it was old blood and that was good.

catatonic.

small heartbeats flutter

but no longer magical:

For they are my own quickened and nervous-

Pulse racing: pounding.

The last three days

For he so long ago did

In the forest deep forest they found him

In the ferns where he’d fallen asleep

I’m Carradine.

My mission is bettering

The devil’s on my shoulders;

The angel's colder

In a ditch somewhere.

Oh well!

No time to wonder then

‘Cause these wondertwins

Are screaming "Evil activate!"

Form of wrist lacerate.

Form of

Sometimes....


I get a twitching in the eye
It happens when I try to lie.
And so when to you these words I tend
That we will always be good friends...
I truly mean it from the heart -
Like when I say 'I did not fart!'.
'Cause even though the stink

The moment loves bliss jumps out of your eyes into mine

Smooth edges butterflying down into the heart of us

three boxes

three boxes came today to a cold house and stood there

set slightly apart from all the other stuff --- waiting

as all boxes do

to be moved on

xxxxxxxxxxxxx

three boxes look sad and lonely

almost apologetically taking up space on my kitchen floor

The thorns have

Taken root

Makes me wonder

If I’ll ever feel

Like That

Again.

 

See my heart

It grows numb.

The constant pain

Makes it

Hard

To feel

Anything

Else.

I guess I just never wanted to believe that you were

Not enough.

Willing to sacrifice whatever I needed to

Just to hold your hand

Watch you smile

Watch you dream

Watch you fall

And help you back up again.

 

Even when the days were lonely

And my heart ached

I went out to write about happiness

Because my poems only ran black and white.

To find color I went outside

And as I observed everything around me

There were no smiles

Except for one lone child.

She runs jumps and shrieks with glee

And I can’t help but grin
