Every inch a mile
& every clock eternity
I miss you, I stay drunk
I’m on my way.
Three Months Now
The side of my neighbor’s house
looks like a yellow brick skull
with a green hedge beard
& dirty window eyes
it watches past the driveway
watches me drink backyard beer
watches while I kiss
the silver pipe
watches like it knows something
I don’t but I do
gone three months now
she’s not coming back.
Purple Hair & Podcasts
(for Ne’Cole)
Pain shapes our paths
in ways
we’d rather not walk
yet we arrive
voices breaking air
still sexy.
