Education

Ink bull diminishing iterations on a sheet of paper

Bilingual Sleep Talking

A speaking finger returned a thicker collar

"I've always liked you, since the beginning"

Set Yourself Up

The institution is a monster,

I've seen it tear people apart.

Steel strangles my speaking finger

While they both watch with bated breath.

The Sharp Edges of a Question

Do you ever think about entering my body

Like a cancer or something plotting against you
Let me save or let me sink
How we speak but never think.

Stars In and Out of Focus

Morning struck through the window

As silent as my first breath,

Slowly burning of last night's fire.

Only embers from blown glass were left,

With the disposing clink left hollow

From what was sucked out,

A genie that told me to write in the present,

Giftwrapped in what was undressed in fake diamonds.

Coxswain Shots and the Midnight Progression

You're off to work, but I think I'll stay in bed.

Montauk

It calmed me to finally see
The salt you breathed while you were underneath.

Scab

The way the sirens echo off of the flush buildings.
We are rats in a maze,
A flightless bird that will glide and then lie.
Who are you fooling when your apple has a rotten core?
And the trash on the sidewalks are like scabs to a sore.

A Minute of Rain

Your barriers are retractable tape

And audio recordings, press 1 for English.

Fundamental misunderstandings,

Invisible like the chipping nail polish.

The Met is not Montauk,

We'll go our separate ways.

Attraction Without Films

Attraction without films

Becomes awkward honest, worn-out true.

A thousand breaths before a point

Puncture words like sharpened joints.

Irresistable

Ice water 3hr sleep

Fireworks from the Inside

The heart breaking down

Sounds, but no lights

Looking through a dirty window

It's clear that no one is here.

I am carving hollow vessels out of wood,

To tread on ice water.

Statistical Outlier

"Except I would be with you
and thats right."
