Playing House
one day I wake up
and my room has been cleaned
but I didn't clean it
and my photos are gone
but I didn't take them down
I try the lamp at my bedside
but the lamp doesn't work
suddenly I'm at the table -
The Toy Store
little toy houses
and little toy cars
on little toy streets
In little toy towns
little puppet people
acting out a little puppet play
about a perfect little town -
more of the garbled metaphoric nonsense people write, try and find the hidden meaning
all squares are circular
because reality is subjective
the color purple you see is the color I call green
because reality is tied to languge
non of us really exist
because we can't prove it

Out of Body
when I look at myself
I don't see a whole person
I see parts of a person
when I look inside my mind
I don't see a whole person
I see fragments of people I was
when other people look at me -
Letter to My Stuffed Animal
I still need you
still there's power in your little body
that didn't' seem so little all that long ago
your my anchor
the one constant in my ever changing world
a calm spot on a turbulent ocean -
Puppeteer
I need to write something
I need to convey the abstract thoughts
that fill my head but don't know how
words them
are faint shadows cast by what they represent
that makes writers shadow puppeteers
