like a weightless veil
wrapping our shoulders, speckled
with tiny diamonds.

don't look back too hard...
it might be better
not to remember
all of what used to be.
that might make now
a bumpier road and
uglier than it needs to be.

Sister...
14 years is a long time
to be sick
tired
in pain
homebound for the most part
missing freedom
friends
family
afraid not to continue hoping
for healing
struggling every day
just to live
just to be.
she cries
my heart breaks.

in its place...
I present myself
without any intention
of presenting myself
in any particular
recognizable way.
I want my words
to be in the light
myself in shadow.

try not to make a mess...
if you are determined,
bound and determined,
to disregard
disrespect
dismiss
the life that you own,
get a room
far away
and write a long note
saying "sorry, I love you,
but I hate myself more."
dammit
you made a mess.

Poetus interruptus...
there's a phrase
gone as quickly
as it came.
So instead of brilliance
there is nothing
to say.

Dammit...
I'm finally getting out to shovel the shitload of snow
that isn't going away on its own.
Carol has a chemo appointment tomorrow but our
roads are still a mess. Fingers crossed.
edit: I lucked out. While cleaning off the 12+" of snow
from my car, two guys in a Jeep stopped and said they
would clear the snow from the driveway for $20.
I considered that a wonderful proposition. Therefore, all
I had to do was throw salt where they cleared. Yay!

Love is rare...
when
love is lost
the world
can
go to hell.
it's better
if you never
had it in the
first place
because
then
you don't
know what you
missed.
