The Girl and the Sky
A little girl looked up to the sky
“So big and far away, it’s like that, why?
I don’t know why you are
The way that you are

For the Sake of Tomorrow
In the blustery cold of today’s noonday sun, I stand holding a sign amongst a group of people with similar signs.

An Abandoned Building
We’ve wandered here from far and wide
To this old building drawn in like flies
Our feet have been blistered and our boots worn thru
And out in the cold our hands turn blue.

I Fell in Love With a Pigeon
He flew into my life on a Tuesday.
All feathers, no job.
Smelled like breadcrumbs and bad decisions.
He coo’d at me like I was the last French fry in a drive-thru bag.
And I believed him.

I Am Someone Who
I am someone who is waiting on a dock in the middle of the night. There is a gross, green electric light shining on me. There is something out in the waves.

12:00 A.M High Tide
Kid sitting at the edge of a dock.
Legs swinging in free fall.
Wood scrapes into his hands.
He thinks that the stars can talk to him.

My grandmother never cut flowers with scissors, raised her nonexistent eyebrows plucked beyond all veins of recognition, blinked one eye fishlike & said a knife was all she needed.

Airport crush
I never really realized how accents can change things
Cus he had an Australian accent and I could not see any flaws
Cus I met him yesterday at a college visit
Cus I was a part of his tour group for less than an hour
