Janus

He who sees without eyes,

he who’s earth and yet flies,

he who lives and yet dies,

who is he?

 

He who speaks without thought,

he whose theft is uncaught,

he who’s desperately sought,

who is he?

 

When the dreamtime comes to pass

we will be but one at last

  • morning but not really

    it’s 2am and i’m still lying awake

    with thoughts in one hand and feelings in the other.

    how can i go to sleep with a head full of stars

    and my face running away

    up into the sky

    looking for the moon?

  • four years

    i sit and stare out the window

    stare out the window at the brown dead grass

    the dirty snow melting into muddy slush

    the mud that is criss-crossed and destroyed with ruts and tire tracks

  • face

    my face is a cage

    and the doves inside are suffocating

    in a pile of their own shit

     

    my arms are broken wings

    and their featherless forms are useless
