your desperation is showing


i watched you

sidling beside her flower

hoping steal her attention,dignity,energy,affection

you are a desperate thief-jonesing for affection

i could smell your sickly sweet aroma

almost like the stench of death covered

buried underneath the smell of gardenia

{gardenia is code for old spice and l'oreal hair gel}


yours is an open casket burial

open because i watched morbidly

*)fascinated(*

by the way you pulled the dirt over your

head.shoulders.knees.and.toes

are you wishing for death?!?

hoping to be caught with your hand in the cookie jar

a serial lover who leaves clues to his undoing


i watched you

and was glad that your attention was diverted

so i could escape while silently judging your eager determination

to fall again

yo mama


these dreams mix with my
re-memories.
i think at one time it was good?
but on this day i feel (too much)
on this day your springly sprangly thoughts
reach into my currency
-my heart is a money clip
a roll of ones with a hundred on the outside-
isn't it amazing how your bitter taste
can still reach my mouth even years later
even eleven hundred miles away
