Literature Text
So I made quiet the things I could not see
and continued to imagine that I was free.
A wandering dream has left me cold--
I grow old, I grow old.
and continued to imagine that I was free.
A wandering dream has left me cold--
I grow old, I grow old.
Literature
deadpan apnea
all you could fall out of
and what i could look forward to
call constantly
when i should be keeping them secret,
sleeping in secret,
and not stalling
and stalling.
all you could fall out of
and all i could fall into
are repeating and repeating
absurd naiveté
like this is part of my healing,
this unending feeling of seizing
and not breathing
and breathing.
Literature
so take your time, love
I will wait for you like spring
here
on the other
side
of frozen
silence
and dissipating
fog
here
at the end
of those
hardscrabble days
paused
in hushed awe
at your blooming
at the delicate
grace
the luminescent
kaleidoscopic
shape
you press up
through the oft
salted earth
there will come a
time
(for you)
to harvest
but for now
soak up these
quiet mornings
sun-kissed
and purring
the air
redolent
unlearning
storms and
seasons
that sought to
sublimate
your growth
renew your hopes
you are not
their
scattered seeds
you are
the flowers
you have
planted
Literature
rememorari
I keep memory in absence
though your story has
a long forgotten ending
I will bury my ghosts
in the afterlife of moments
and let effort be a windowsill
to the crematorium of burdens,
the echo of living the ashes of longing,
a cemetery of remembrance
and in your memory I find
someone to stay

Random little rhymes running through my head, partially inspired by The Lovesong of J. Alfred Prufrock.
