Insults and Injuries
I bemoan and decry
How
No one — absolutely no one
Whether in writing, or whether verbally
Neither by smoke-signal, ancient code, pony-express, street sign, Social, nor any other means of communication or Media
Except Shakespeare, himself
Provided instruction on the following:
Seeing the writing on the wall;
Surviving the sudden, unspoken goodbye;
Understanding in any way, shape, or form, heartbreak;
Avoiding the subsequent self-loathing;
Navigating the wrong kinds of depths, whilst working to resurface;
The exact location where one may file a writ of replevin to retrieve back their spirit — unshattered, whole, good as new — and perhaps their house key, as well; and,
Walking with confidence therewith.

The Greatest
Our colors, like water…like oxygen…work well together…like art from artists, were we to work in earnest.
What say you, America — will we work on love, on great…’fore the hour becomes late?

As You Wish
I weep
That we
Were not good
Enough
I long
That you
Would see you’re
Enough
Clutter from time to time
Mismatched clothes
My dawdling
Our difficult workdays
For you, were too much
Brass rings collected
Passports filled
Our non-fictitious Florin acquired
Love, had you’d let it
For me, these were enough
Independence Eve: A Haiku
Last time my heart’ll fall
Dogs in the night, breaking in
Last time, I promise
Pie
I loved you
I loved
Sleeping along side you
Listening to you breathe
Basking in your presence through the night
Seeing in the morning you were real
Sharing berries at breakfast with you
I’ll be damned — you were larger than life
And your walking away — without a goodbye — a most epic plot twist
A pie in the face afterall
Liquid Heat
Oxygen, I
Afire, you
Particular particulate matter, we
Your grey-green eyes, my green, green eyes
This was all that mattered
Dissipated, now
Why
Science and God refuse to explain
Do not blame the Sun
Please be a balance
Eyes that see
One fluid motion this life
