POEM:

They look like an accidental bird,
Wings making grey angles
Their thoughts move in rings around their ears
And scrape against the sharp jaw lines,
Movement horizontally, body stretching across
only to snap back
into embodiedness.
Seeing them, I noticed how
our spine...

POEM:

When terrorists start a war
through unprovoked attacks
on their neighboring country’s
civilians,
and that neighboring country
first blocks the missiles,
then uses drones to cut down
only the actual person who fired
the last missile, but eventually,
when enough missi...

POEM:

The way I feel
lives in the muscle of your thigh
right before it moves.
Coiled in anxious yes.

Waiting to reach past
Its own name,
to take control and grab you
without hesitation.
Every nerve at attention as hands
clench and tighten around the air.
The quiet game o...

POEM:

It’s been a long hot summer
Our work’s been hard each day

my father is dead

and the wine is flowing in my blood
just lik...

POEM:

Your brain is a sea,
your irises my windows
to watch you drown.

You choke on waves
meant to break on my shore.

You choke on your own hair.

From your skull
tentacles peel,
crawl down your face
like purple ivy
over my windowsill.

You ...

POEM:

No raise, no money, no overtime.
This pride ain’t built on a production line.
Your cars, your drinks, your parking fines
keep us down in the welfare line.
We scream, we cry, we love and die.
All for a crumb from the social pie.
But who ...
