Possibly "The Best Man"

Parts of a poem i wrote the other night:

VI.
Fancy we're at a church
we can always rent a hearst
when i get her so drunk
she pukes on the whore
who killed me summer before
and now in a gown
made of crustal and brown
delighted to be escorted
how much did he pay
to have his way
and make a daughter..

VII.
The time has come
to cut the cake and the crown
girls gather down
i'll take another round
i need the liquor
to drown out the sounds
like fighting beasts
entrapped in the heat
and bury him in the sand
life out the window
with your fading libido
library only vip card in your wallet.

bring may flowers


the rain today
wash my sins away
pour the wine
your blood, my chastise.

Bianca.

she is ready
sitting with tea in her cup
pearls in her hand
rain fighting her on the window
she is ready
sun cast low
candle lit
one last stroke of hair
she is ready
lips not smeared
dress bouncing off her tears
he far not near
she is ready
bracelets on her pillowcase
shoe spinning on the ground
bathtub already cold
she is ready.
ready to fall
ready to let him win.
ready.
she is already.

Bored in Class.



It clouded my judgement

like a suffocating fog

dancing downward

blocking you from view

bellowing my head down

eyes almost asleep

avoiding the traffic

that surrounds all around me

under a bridge

it clears away

you're sitting over there

frozen in time

a puff of smoke

in a soundless hand

legs crossed

a do not enter sign

as i move on foward

blind sheet of white

clothes pins working in the summer

wind pushing me back

a sign for another

i reach your path

cigarette left on the ground

stained red for me

a kiss for the damned.

Hills Like White Elephants

Tonight our words are forming boundaries, coercing us into this silhouette of blatant fiction. It wavers. Oh, just then you threw your arms around me effectively inducing Looking Glass derived refractions.


So don't wait for us. The season's perfect. Hold on, be still. The shadow's coming. And we'll sing, we'll sing like murderers in choirs. When we shelter these infractions I'm in love. The curvature of prose completes us. There's no substance in our lungs.

But now this condescending grandeur will seize our rhetorical cries. I'm here my sweet Madeline. And write me off like I'm a child I've used up my newness in stride. I'm here my sweet Madeline. Because the infraction in decency accents your perception of what we imply, you fabricate your affections tonight. And your makeshift compassion's affectively placed when it suits you and their compliments seem to run dry. I'll be your default tonight. So take my kindness as a weakness; I am benign. But still I'll hold on. I'll hold on!


You are the consummate motion of dilated inhibitions. Improve your net worth by negating your constraints. You're the malevolent rupture in collective progression. I am your sense of achievement. I'm a fallback, I'm your failures, but you are the one I would die for
