High strung as the moon
Keeps affecting and creating
A spitfire and poetry dominatrix
The pit bull approached and I panicked
I don’t remember this happening
Just like Juliet doesn’t remember me ripping up her cigarettes on the way to COSI
I recall when we would bake cookies
It was the one thing we did together that caused no strife
Twin Peaks was another tactic to calm the turbulent storm while allowing me a respite from my own calamity of loneliness
When talking about the unvaccinated we both get hot under the collar
because the thought that someone else’s’ ignorance could cost us our
lives is complete and utter BS
Grimy love isn’t all it’s cracked up to be especially when our selfhood
is hidden within the relics of our cloak and dagger hearts
When I tell people I was once a telephone psychic it always gets a big
laugh, but what they don’t understand is that being an artist uses the
same toolset, just for a lot less money
We’re both night owls and I believe that’s because creative sparks await nightfall before presenting themselves in full regalia
I have a scratchy throat which worries me because I cannot afford a visit from the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future
This poem isn’t making me happy, so I’m going to lie down and when I get
up perhaps everything will make more sense or at the very least not
aggravate me so much.
