How far down the rabbit hole
Do you go
When you relinquish
Control?

When the universe becomes
Only you and me

What does it feel like
When this is all
You want to feel?

Worshipping you
My religion
Hands of a sinner
Feeling sweet deliverance
Feeling the warmth
Of your light
All of it

I’m a fitted sheet
on a bed that’s
too small for me

I know where to stretch and where to fold cos the corners were made in production

and it’s costly to #raise my hand when the act of living is a king size mattress

that I cling to
under tension
with a significant
chance of
detachment

writing without reason
with words growing
from irregular breath
barely tinted air
& sobs caught in the throat
the hand moves on
ink spills onto page
answering inscrutable calls
no promise of gain
no triumph sought
just the act
of raising a voice
against the void

Grace in poise, yet tethered tight,
Blue hues mask the pink in sight.

Bound by movement, a soul confined.
Yearning to soar, but trapped inside.

I ache to leap, to vault, to fly,
Yet shadows bind where dreams lie high.

Night Shift

On the Night Shift
to help remove the bottleneck -
Set 'em up,
knock 'em out -
Build new boats from this old shipwreck.

Silence sets the mood
Long narrow shafts
Stretch out before
In mirrored columns
Into this hall
He draws in stark relief
An image of her
As revealed to him
An image of
His beloved
Perfect in form
But only from one angle
As his limited view
Perceives

My heart is burning down
with anger and anguish and fear
My fire is killing me slowly
Hoping for love to draw near
Take this pain and make it gone
Longing for a time I've never known
Souls floating with stars in the ether flown
And I pray
that it will be
But not today
not for me
