Different now
He’s older
So am I 
So is he
We are different now
We were once three
And we were We
Now it’s he and he
He and me
We
Great, still
Differently

Does it seem sensual?
What else could cause you 
To cast off your clothes,
To peel away as if parched 
The years of you and me
Of we? On your way
To some other’s carefree closet? 
Nevertheless, there’ll not be a Day
In which I won’t want
This old coat to cling ever so tight.

You became my conscience
The mass in my heart 
The voice in my head
Shouting out what I already knew,  
You thought
One day I’ll dismiss you away
So sudden
So permanent and retroactively
You’ll not know to ask
Who?

So Much Blue Sky

You warrant more verses

Come closer here

You chaotic data point

You anomaly of nature

Emerged from the bedrock

Suffered not by your world 

Until too close to now 

How many haven’t known

There are laws against thee

Isn’t it enough to send you
The notion
The gall
The balls of it all

What white coat ought you report to 
‘Twas witchcraft
‘Twas lies
‘Twas dust in your eyes

All the hell you put yourself through
To know life
To thrive
To More Than Survive

What is Wanted

Irksome grace
For its decree of life
With gritted teeth and straight shoulders
Sometimes
With initially unnoticed weaving 
Othertimes

Confounded hounding 
For its refusal to die
Through the otherwise hollow
This mind
Through conceded smile
I don’t mind

Polishing the tools
Under cover of the Moon
Sterilize the wound
With Kentucky’s finest Blue
Create a masterpiece
For their eyes and accolades
Feign lamentedness
At your left feet and failed grades
