Through A Glass, Darkly

MYSTICS

TELL

“i convalesced

the lasting 
impressions 
that I left 

with every step

It’s had 
all of us 
asking;

we’re pretty sad 
to face the facts

‘family is fantasy’
i repeat it;

a whisper through the canopy

while dad’s fissuring tobacco leaf

I’m just distancing my empathy

sentences 
assemble me

still i 

catch myself just
shutting up

catch myself just
shutting up

“collaborating”

just collaborating.

we’re only animals... 

collaborating:

hands 
knit 
by 
fingers

bonds far 
beyond blood


the first pawn startles one love

dreaming of;
beaming from
‘collaborating’

like we don't 
think anymore

you’re staying 
here to be warm

my favorite 
roller coaster is 
the road back home


sound is 
electrocuting 
like the 
clap of 
crickets’ wings


dancing like
all of the 
shadows 
of the trees

patient like 
honey 
from a bee

dancing like
all of the 
shadows 
of the trees

patient like 
honey 
from a bee”
