Don't listen to me; my heart's been broken. I don't see anything objectively. I know myself; l've learned to hear like a psychiatrist. When I speak passionately, that's when l'm least to be trusted. It's very sad, really: all my life, l've been praised for my intelligence, my powers of language, of insight. In the end, they're wasted. I never see myself.
- Louise Glück, from *The Untrustworthy Speaker."

Growth is not
a straight line
nor is it a
fault line.
Growth is
a semicolon
placed where an
ellipsis
once slept.

it's a deep, throbbing ache, the kind that stays sore.
It might go away, it might ease up, but it'll come back, just like before
chopping axes, gaping wounds, and half healed, bloody, aching gore

Relapse
-
I tied myself shut
With band aids and rubber bands
In that office in the attic.
If the night was cold,
I couldn't feel it.
But I shivered
As I climbed into bed.
Hollow.
Hollow.
Hollow.

god is this love?
god is this self hate?
loving someone who has no intention of loving you back.
is this me using the blood my heart is bleeding and trying to paint a pretty picture of us?
can there be a pretty picture of us?
can there be a pretty picture with me in it?

Porn Is A Mans Best Friend
Porn is a mans best friend Whether alone or within his girlfriend Inside her fleshlight adversary Or as her dildo mortuary Adding to his fleshlight cemetary On a swipe away for the next veiled arbitrary For when the best of friends he can have is porn Is when the sanctity of intimacy is halved and torn
