this has been my battle, more or less, for the last couple of years- i’m sorry that something similar is weighing you down joe. :^( for what little it is worth, my spark/drive/etc is rekindled every so often after i’ve nursed whatever part of myself needed it most. it’s frustrating & confusing!

Here are some more excerpts from the book, and the link for the digital edition: mancameron.itch.io/ghost-walks
A page excerpt from the book. The poem, "schrödinger’s cat", is surrounded by an illustration of a cat in a carboard box. Stars and a paper airplane fly by the cat, who peeks out at it. The poem reads, schrödinger’s cat- opened / unopened peeking out to look at you, starry eyes gently ask “what’s in yours?” a cardboard box- where a ribcage should be she paws softly at your chest, waiting for an observation schrödinger’s heart. A page spread exerpt from the book. The poem, "empty year / it has been a year", reads, it has been a year since everything got worse & i am, as i was, not sure why it had to be. i wonder when i’ll be okay again instead of whatever this is. jumping at the shadows of the people i love— hiding from their sun, since i’ve fancied myself the moon. sucks to find the phone line severed, not sure who had the scissors. i’ll blame you because tragedy plus time has made me a dick it has been a year that i am most tired of; empty, loud, cold. a year of chewed lips and panicked texts and heavier weeknights. it has been more than that it has been a fucking year inside words i do not occupy— the wrong medicine given for a careless diagnosis, but (heartily) accepted. i know, & i will never again, be sunset to another’s sunrise. i think i did something, and it made you mad or it hurt or it ground against your teeth at night— & i am, and i’ll remain, not sure what the point was in words without meaning. i can feel it coming waves, underneath the surface unsettled by a satellite, unmedicated and erratic A page spread excerpt from the book. The continuation of "empty year / it has been a year." A small illustration of a figure sitting on a shattered house, surrounded by ghosts, and illustrative text that says "i deserve a good year." The rest of the poem reads, so i keep running inland ahead of it, tearing at my heels a phantom tsunami only i can see — out there, at the coast where i left you all, moving on, gently stepping around my chalk outline because, as you know, might as well be dead, right? it makes sense to my panic drenched to the bone, & deeper this corrosive has eaten through each stilt i thought sturdy so while it rips me up from the foundation, i wonder when will i be okay again? and as the ocean surges back my tail between my legs i think- i don’t remember what that is anymore, do i? i’m not who i thought i was on level ground there’s something in the sound of empty spaces still ringing a voice unsure, will i ever be okay again? you said a lot of things, and nothing at all, every empty word echoing in this empty year. it has been a long year that could of been better, & gratefully, slowly, i am learning how it would have looked from kinder hands.

as always, any support is really appreciated! and thank you to those who’ve bought stuff recently, it’s helped enormously. here’s the direct link for the book: mancameron.itch.io/ghost-walks
A page from my book, Ghost Walks. It reads: ‘happy’ one mistaken for seven a rush out the door, & we're head first,sweetheart heels following soon after- it all makes sense. fall warbles, caught dead in the headlights middle of the road, and god, it could all fall apart you know? fall keeps standing there eyes bright, a warning or brilliant guiding stars it stands there. heralding seasons & years & oh my god you know that i'm happy but wondering leads to typing frantic prayers on my phone; i've never known this— the facsimile or the falsehood (continued in the next image) The continuation of the poem from the previous image. It reads: cups of coffee & waiting around for you to walk in again. what was i doing all this time? you know that i'm happy you know that, i've told you goddamn, boy. goddamn. A page from my book, Ghost Walks. Sketches surround the poem, the text of which looks jostled around. It reads: "a story" i want you to tell me a story a beginning, a middle an end. where everything goes right- it always went right. i've asked this enough to last until god snuffs out our wicks- there's no hint in the eyes, in the breath that you mind. everyone gathers ‘round to witness another miracle. a defiance, right here in southern suburbia; you take a breath— A promotional image for my book, Ghost Walks. It reads: You can purchase the digital edition of Ghost Walks, along with other comics and zines, at the link below. MANCAMERON.ITCH.IO

i keep planning for a future and it always finds a way to unravel and somehow, rent is still due every month. every couple of months i try and use social media, reclaim some version of myself, only to crumble again and again. i’m hoping this time is different! but i’m tired all the time.
