The Day After

The Day After 2/6

Under foot dark blue glass like the ocean : Windex

Imbedding in the heel of new shoes

Each step : sound : peanut shells cracking

There are two full Corona bottles on the sidewalk
50/50 chance they are full of piss

Unlikeness

I'm back from England. I took a day to relax. This is yesterday's poem.

A woman came into my cafe one morning at 8:00 and started drinking wine. She had 3 glasses and kept talking about her husband who would be there in a moment. A little over an hour passed and she began to talk about how he had said he was parking the car.

She left and never came back.


Unlikeness 7/7

Ju-just calm down
he’s coming

Watching her like you do
Waiting for the angries to begin – shake
up her spine like a tingle of winter
Some cold metal on your inner thigh – a gun
or maybe a knife

He’s ju- just parking
we had a fight

Streets empty – you know how it is
it’s early in the morning – the wine
looks like cranberry juice
Half of two glasses – swirling in
There’s that sound of AC and fans

Loo-ook I
need a cigarette

Door open – shut – it’s hot outside
only 8 in the morning
I’m just saying that I’m not drinking this early
not that I wouldn’t
or that I haven’t thought about it

Moonshine

May!

The new header is a photo from a moving train that has just left the Philadelphia Amtrak station. It was taken on April 16th around 11ish in the morning. It says ASAP!

There was an amazing full moon on Thursday night. I walked home the long way to see more of it. These are the things I miss about living in a place with fewer obstructions to the sky.


Moonshine 5/1

...the better you look!

slowly leaning to one side

...as you drunk I am!

arm dangling, leg slipping...

Tawny

Tawny is a color AND a type of port wine. It's a fact.


Tawny (1/12)

This is a honey drip
            your cock is - I want to walk with it

Hold it in my hand like a baton
            throw it in the air like a majorette

It will spindle in front of a purple sky

You are a bottle of port
            you are morning killing night
