and now you have the nerve to say
that i'm the cause of the civil unrest
at least i was fuckin nice about it
at least i thought fuckin twice about it
and now you say i'm a vexatious pest
a handy nom de pleur you got
to conveniently lump me in
with all the rest
of those degenerate freeloading
mooching scumbag bums
parasitic hypocrites the lot
laminate some more plastic
you grade two government spastic
yet still you say
it was all me
it’s all hearsay which i
strenuously refute and
vehemently deny
your super secret info source
was a rival (pah)
c’mon we’ll say it once
out aloud
dumb cunt!
and now just in case you screw it
cause i know it’s you that will do it
just in case you manage to fuck it all up
more of a chaff place than a safe space
head on into the dark
venture a little further
the less we know the less we give
the less we show the less we live
the less we live the less we feel
the less we feel we lessen our real
this lessening
this loss

Exploring the World of Food
Food is more than sustenance; it is a universal language that speaks to our senses, culture, and history. Whether you are a culinary enthusiast or simply enjoy a good meal, the diversity of flavors and traditions found in cuisines around the world offers a tantalizing journey for the palate. Join me as we embark on an exploration of the rich tapestry that is food.

making space
Since the only thing that might pull us back up is caring, it only makes sense that here, long after I’ve let my anger born of heartbreak and grief misplace, multiply, misdirect itself, let the enormity of my solitude turn into something I don’t know how to dispute with, something thick and heavy and suffocating, let the coldness thrash and fight under my skin, deeper still, in between the arches of my organs; here where the ground is always close and the fall is easy and I surrender to it often, lie without purpose for hours, it only makes sense that it is here, I decide to show up and surrender to the possibilities of the night. Show up to those who I deserted. Drawn to the sense of accomplishment, something I haven’t felt in a while, to memory of finished dish sending its aroma into the world and with it, wrapping the room with a strong sense of sweet nostalgia, I get up and decide to cook. I pick up my phone, type a message that reads “Dinner at mine @ 8PM, don’t bring anything” and before my courage deserts me again, drop it in our friends’ group chat, the way one would do when diffusing a bomb in the movies: one eye closed, snip at the wire, hoping for the best.
