I exist - hopefully it'll get better soon.
Fourth-worst poet in the universe.
Currently, not shilling anything.

The love of my life,
of twenty years,
still has not learned
to be specific with me.
‘Can I have tea?’,
she will ask, sweetly.
Off I rush, into the kitchen.
Swiftly, I return, cup in hand.
‘What’s this?’ she will exclaim,
staring at the steaming brew.
‘I wanted something to eat!’

Can I survive in
reality any more?
My digital world,
with NFC payments,
streaming media,
global communications.
A.I. companions listen
to my woes, run off
with coding tasks,
completing in the blink
of an eye.
Then vying
for attention, with
a follow-up question
or three.

Goals when you have ADHD.
We write lists, plan to the nth degree;
buy, buy, buy all the things we need,
declare to the universe our desires
and how we will achieve them.
Then we notice that new thing -
the one over there that needs
our undivided attention.
So we write lists…

As I plummeted down, passing branches and leaves. I was distracted by a garden gnome, that looked like it was giving me the finger.
This event meant I missed the ground, and I ended up hovering several inches above it.
My second attempt was not quite as successful.

I break my silence.
A broken heart,
mourning again.
My tabby Tequila
joins brother Tweak
in the quiet beyond.
My world is quiet,
emptied of purrs,
of head-bumps.
I adjust, slowly,
remembering the love
in the spaces left behind.

Back on Bluesky,
after my surgery.
Recovery is slow,
I'm so exhausted...
Antibiotics -
When the cure
feels as bad

Quiet posting over these two weeks - training at work, so brain engaged elsewhere. Back at it next week if I recover quickly from my nose operation.

The Photograph
I found it
in a drawer-
your smile paused,
your bright eyes
waiting.
The paper bends,
but the moment does not.
It stares back
from a time
I cannot touch.
