Poetry / “Franklin’s Kite”
Like I suppose Columbus held while he sailed the ocean blue, I try to locate you with a brass compass. Like I’ve seen Gandhi wear, while nonviolently battling the Brits, I battle old photos through clear round gold frames Like I learned da Vinci designed, in between the helicopter and scuba gear, on…
Poetry / “Diner placemat love note”
I have become a front porch Bell jar wino looking for yesterday But all I want is to be a back alley junkie freebasing glimpses of tomorrow And on each day of your absence I’ve received a morphine drip of your perceived value While fearing the dark and squinting to find…

Poetry / “Gunpowder ghosts”
Gunpowder ghosts I am unsure that you still exist because my memories are grainy and out of focus like films of bigfoot lumbering across the landscape leaving footprints real or not Perhaps you’re still here and are held up by invisible strings like blurry pie plates in UFO films that we once watched…

Poetry / “Context”
Context I might tell you how much I enjoy being with you as if you couldn’t tell (I am that transparent) but it would be without true meaning I should let you know how each of your kisses paralyze me for a beautiful brief instant (which is why I have to pull away…
Love story / “Blessed”
Blessed I’d really like to start going to church, she said out of nowhere. He merged the old Monte Carlo onto the parkway on a gray day that was too fucking cold for March. It’s supposed to be the third day of spring, he thought, and in protest he hadn’t brought a coat. …
Poetry / “Songs you can’t dance to”
Songs you can’t dance to The cloud that covers me when I trace the curve of your back The blindness that overcomes me when I see the back of your knee The hangover I fight through on the morning after we touch The momentary blackout you cause as you lean in…
