An Empty Life
This country is empty
It is long gone
For the days of adventure
And truth
Lie written in our history books
Soon to be burned and forgotten -
Springsteen
I'm 14.
And I just saw Bruce Springsteen
Live for the first time.
I've loved him and his music since I was 6.
I've listened to him religiously since I was 7. -
018751
018751 this was the lunch code I was given
My first day of third grade
My teacher wrote on my hand
With a green marker that smelled like berries
018751 this was the passcode for my first email -
Austin
I'm chasing that feeling
I lost so long ago
The feeling when the sun would set
And a smile would appear on my face -

Speak
Today felt the same as yesterday
Nothing changed
But there was a silence
That echoed in the voices
I heard
Today felt as if nothing changed
I got up brushed my teeth

When You Call The Wrong 911
"991, Clowns of America, honk honk, what seems to be the problem?"
"Hello, police? I am on the side of a cliff, doing some rock climbing, but all of my gear fell down so I'm stuck!"

Mundane
a lesbian couple on my bus home from school
a man in a punk battle jacket on the street
my mother's female CEO group chat blowing up
four of my teachers taking the following day off

winter coming
winter's coming on fast-
better chop enough wood.pluck the last fruits of the harvest-
then say goodnight to the garden,
resting under a blanket of leaves and love. -
11/9/24
When best friends of old
become polite passersby
still give them a smile and let your heart be full
for theirs are broken too
and need to be reminded to mend.

Great America
Make America Great Again
With a dictator and fascism
We choose hatred over empathy
Just to protect our weaponry
So screw Trans right and wildlife

To Be a Son
Blue and black blur as the football spirals through the air,
My hands outstretched,
The ball tumbling closer and closer.
I drop it.
