Muse of Mine
You love to paint.
You teeter on the line between
Hedonism and Asceticism
with every move of your fingers
each shape you make in the clay

Snap, clap, bite
Maybe you'll wake up
to a small mercy raining heavily
on your roof
or maybe you won't.

Small Towns at Sunset
I go biking near dusk, when the sun skims the surface of the horizon and the owls begin to hoot and the bugs begin to bite.

Kind Cruel God
Waking up to you
grinning down at me
your long, golden hair falling off your shoulders,
I close my eyes
block out your face with my hand

Crunch crunch
Walking to school

not yet biting,
at exposed skin
leaving it red to match

So I took out my hearing aids.
The world quieted around me.
I kept on
running,
each foot fall

Taint of red
It comes like clockwork
Tainting my life in red
Searing pain
Heavy thoughts
Crushing my heart
And yet
I go to school
I get good grades
I do my sports
With the taint of red
Everyday

Little Girl
My little girl's body ran after wild animals, not caring about if I had to look cool or if I got all sweaty. Now I check my hair before going out and make sure I spray my perfume too many times to hide the smell of sweat or odor.
