Except a house with a busted sink
He thought I was screwed
With the denim divorce blues
He wanted to bankrupt dreams

But little did he know

Scouring Self-Loathing

...Evict me from this grimy house
My son asked me what self-loathing is
His home still occupied with laughter
I was taken aback by his cleanliness
I told him it gathers like dust over time 
Sweep m...

I Know Who She Is

the woman.
I try to recall a name, three come to mind, they don’t fit
with the blue flowers on her inked ankles,
Alpine Gentians I think,
they ring around slim ceramic...

is now a walk-down bistro.
I was told about the new use,
try to imagine it
as a remodeling of that old place.

I dream now of yellow caterpillars on green leaves,

in her pocket book.
She once found an unused finger,
and has been thrusting it

A pill that consumes and corrupts 
Our honor's been jailed
And truth’s will is impaled
As the blood PAC tempest erupts

how we are so alike,
yet, so different in this manner.

my soul craves a more intimate bond.

Dear Depressed

...I feel the agony of your anguish,  
The pulsing pain that now persists
I hear distant calls of your distress
And hear tell your tears of torment

Hold my hand and hear

Modest but me...

Frankly Yours

...lop.

Lose his number,
as it seems to be...
you were a dirty secret.

His "sister" likely a wife,
don't wreck her life...
just walk away.

His phone neither broken,
nor is it hid...
you naive kid.

He is not shy,
simply attempting to be shy...
"remodeling" a tricky lie.

His homeT you won't see,
gather what remains of your dignity...
flee this deception.

Focus upon your work,
be a brilliant mother...
eventually you'll find another....
