seems like ten
i had nine million thoughts of you
8,999,999,000 of them were daggers to my heart
the one thought that i held on to was recycled and turned into a message from God
it took me 3,650 days to realize that quality time with you was a sneeze in a thrift store full of ripoffs
now for seven days a week, i move on like a turtle intentionally constipated
i always carry that small wonder like a 15 year old butterscotch disc
at least butterscotch is still a friend of mine....
did you ever read that poem and hip yourself to the internal message
now my heart is on a temperamental conveyor belt
the surgical tools used to fix it have all decided to become animate and retire
the tears from my heart make black roses grow and inspire an odd senility to the whole of me
yes, it feels like another ten....and i thank you from the bottom....
....that i will never get over....

Christmas is
The time of year
For bringing joy
For bringing cheer
All the hustle
All the bustle
Turns shopping trips
Into a tussle
All the crazies
All the weirdos
All the ripoffs
All the ladies.
If you buy this,
We'll throw in the hat
If you buy this,
We'll throw in that.
But what most people
Tend to forget
Is that this isn't
What it's all about.
2,000 years back
He came to be
2,000 years back
He came to me
So we could live
Eternally
