Entry In My Sister's Journal 10 Years From Now
This is an old piece of writing, and I don't remember writing it.

The Man
I met the strangest man today. He was dressed in a white lab coat, and he had a face like that falling sensation that jolts you awake when you're trying to fall asleep.
-
Restless Night
Still up.
I feel the weight
That the dark puts on me.
I try to drown it with lamp light:
Gets worse.
-
Getting Hugged
I worry a lot about what I am. I worry about the shape I am, the space I take up, and the way I do it.
-
Space Dream
I had this dream the other night that some object in outer space had been reflecting radiation onto certain people: just dissolving them painlessly into light.
-
The longer I wait.
No more promises to go to bed earlier
No more making up meaning for the mess on the floor,
No more pages all across my desk.
No more of the big clothes to hide what I don't have.

i wish my best friend lived in australia
it's true, i would miss you.
you wouldn't be a door away anymore, and it would hurt. -

Mushroom
Words slip through my fingertips
every so often.
Experiences in foreign countries,
meeting new people, and even falling in love—
all boiled into delusion.

The East Wind
The East Wind is a rabbi in a darkened shul. He sits pored over the Torah scroll long into the night, his back bent like a cane. People come and go and come again, whispering prayers for the needy, the hungry, the sick.

I still
So Sunday was the first night of Hanukkah
And there are still cops
Outside the synagogue
And there are still people who look at us
With murder in their eyes
And there are still shootings
