You’re right
3 years ago, I viewed frogs as aliens
Now I wonder whether they’re angels
Months ago, I hated the sound of songbirds
Now I write their songs
I tweet along
Everything I did, I did do
It still was
Even if it no longer is
Whatever I am
I still am what I was
Even if I longer am
You’re right
I was right and now I’m left
But the person I was hasn’t ...

See Her
When she folded into herself
You all looked away
When she unraveled
You all watched

Our Nation's Rock Bottom
Our Nation's Rock Bottom
There comes a point in a person’s life where things must change.
They have hurt themselves, and others.
They have lost everything they had.
They have even lost their way.
It’s a point,
where the failures and the terrible things of their past rise up to haunt them.
They must change or perish.
Because of what they have allowed to happen,
they find themselves i...

Outside of Herself
"Find yourself"
You can misplace your mind
But
You can't forfeit your mind
When you've built a fort for your mind
Mine is bulletproof,
Double-glazed,
Soundproof,
In here
I can stay outside of myself
I can step outside of the world
Oops
Yesterday,
I watched us having a conversation
From my window panes
Through the heavy glaze
It made me feel some type...

Buddhism 101
The root of all suffering.
Being and non being.
Body constantly at odds with the mind.
Do i choose body or mind.
A paradox, a kunundrum, enantiodromia.
Dysphoria is real.
How can I be so sick and at the same time be so well.
Disease, a state of being at Ill ease with a state of being.
The binary code runs deep. Greater than a social construct.
Male to Female, Yin/ Ya...

Dumped on the street
At a glance a heap of rubbish
dumped in front of the house
detritus from indoors
strewn across the footpath
On closer look someone's life
their stuff moved out onto the street
destined for a refuse container
on grey, impersonal council land
A new owner with new stuff
will give the house new life
while the old life peters out
in socially isolated circumsta...

I just got finished reading a very depressing comments thread on Facebook..... So it's probably time to stop....
I chose to delete once before
But decided to try again
Social media seems so much more interesting
Than endless rounds of freecell
But between every post of a friend
Is a reminder of the world and how it ends
Of all the evil and rudeness and sin
Decadent glory of our own destruction
So I'm thinking of deleting again
Maybe
But of course I could just soldier on
La la...
