just published an #immigrant story and brief #biography of a great man who passed away last year age 99. paperback coming soon - www.amazon.com/dp/B0GHGP1BBQ/
We were blind with it wet with it inside the foggy morning. I cut a piece out and pocketed it to touch in moments of despair. In the empire the interest rates climbed up from a base and everything out of reach. They left us to die in our phones. And then - your #kiss #vss365

i could not explain away the #lacuna without consulting the gods who told me in a hundred beads fallen from my wrist in a sun shower in the middle of the night where I had been. remembering I cried. and wrote it down as fast as I could before it went out on the tides #vss365

without a warm voice
in my head
can't keep those
inner demons
from feasting
they know all my soft places
know just the right words
"uncomfortable"
"weird"
"pathetic"
"unwanted"
and they tear me to pieces
until there's nothing left
just a #lacuna
where i can store

invasion of dawn over the land ... choreographed waves of influencers and who is who in a sanitized place beam out in sizzling satellite emissions then recede ... in the silence in the dark I can finally breathe. I can feel joy and heartache and love living #vss365 #dark

it was freeing
seeing her reflection
touching
nail beds to the curve of this planet
she carved
each follicle uplifting
her thoughts drifting
farther from the #ache
of memory
chrome of razor
catching light
beneath her wrist
like the lake where
he drowned

was it lambent starlight
flickering as her car
sped down the freeway
with the windows down
music blasting through speakers
or was it just her astigmatism
making all lights sparkle?
romanticism made her life
just a little better
turning a runaway
into a fairytale princess

2.9.26 all I am is breath. transparency. like the materials you chose to adorn me with. pellucidity of desire. my #bones dissolve in your embrace deep in these high count hotel casino sheets. tonight I bring you luck. I am your ace.

2.6.26 the #wound came in various colors across the years and could not fully heal without the medicine you were unwilling to give. your apathy betrayed you. I cared less and less and less (about you). I guess it was contagious. It is sad. Yet I feel so deeply I know I've moved on. #vss365

Frustrated with her inability to find le bon mot, she'd stabbed the nib of her pen through the book. I'll have to face the damn librarian, she muttered smoothing the ragged #wound edges. But the hole enlarged, spilling words, and when exhausted, blue ink onto her guilty fingers.
