AFTER LIFE AND PAIN CAME DEATH. The End. The baby grew through summer rain, then stood upon her own, she filled the rooms with laughter before she left our home.

NOTHING LEFT EXCEPT YESTERDAY’S GHOSTS The house still knows your footsteps, the floorboards speak at night, your shadow passes through the hall then disappears from sight.
THE REJECTION My mother died that winter, I didn’t understand, why people said be strong now, or tried to hold my hand.
WE MADE LOVE NAKED IN THE RAIN We made love naked in the rain, beneath a trembling sky, the thunder rolled above our heads as clouds went drifting by.
FROM THE RAIN CAME THE BABY From the rain came the baby, from thunder, love and night, a tiny seed began to grow beneath my heart so light.
the horror of the sacrifice of the concept, a child. remember when we watched the killing of a sacred deer ? well. sometimes abstrusities induce a rage in me simply because i can't see the thing. one might say i lack emotional intelligence . i should think more before i speak. i'm just a simple man with simple tastes.

YOU LEFT ME FROZEN, COLDER THAN ICE You left me frozen, colder than ice, with winter in my veins, your final words became the frost that settled on my pain.
ROMANCE Romance is not expensive It doesn’t need a ring Sometimes a chair beside you Can mean almost everything A table set for two hearts Beneath a silver moon Two glasses left there waiting For someone coming soon
Cries that go unheard The child within us all Need of an encouraging word A hand up when we fall For no one can always do it alone

grief finds - clings - to the life-raft motion of grey lead in notebooks fingers on keys ** and we write into existence

MONKEY LAUGH, MONKEY CRY, MONKEY DEAD Monkey laugh when people clap, monkey dance on wooden floor, monkey wear a little hat and bow beside the door.
THE BLACK WIDOW DEVOURED HIS FEELINGS A black widow lived inside his chest, behind the bones and skin, she built her web around his heart and quietly moved in.
