We send words where we dare not,
faux fingers into the wireless night,
knowingly morphing into ghosts.

She didn’t like to think
of the word. A space where
the only light comes from the
generosity of the beings who
inhabit such vivid darkness.
If she speaks the word “afraid”
any hope of light evaporates.

Two truths &
a lie
Everyday
is children’s day
Gratitude
is always relevant
Your brothers
torment you
unmercilously because
they love you -

It’s simple and it’s not
when one’s only tiny
goal is to sleep for
another hour.

autumn signals a
return. Wiggles of doubt
Invade the veins in my
neck. Residual aftershocks
from the years when
educators failed my child.
Battles, misunderstandings
followed. Trust, impossible
to glean.
deep autumn, again

I will relish the
memories of Halloween
and optimistically
wait for the knocks
on the door and the smiling
eyes of princesses,
cartoon characters
and regularly dressed
teens hopefully looking
up at me.

When I die Bury me
In the roots of a Cedar tree
Forget the casket wrap
Me in Leaves
So that the Worms and the Grubs
And God can find me

I really can't wait to argue
You've got a two-bit point of view—
You're just a regrown cancer

Every ad I see
On the TV
It’s from Am-a-zon.
Every truck I see
On the Free
Wait, it’s Am-a-zon.
Every train car trailing by
On the rails near my
I hate. It’s Am-a-zon.
Stretching on and on, the tentacles of the ogre that is
A-ma-zon. ⬇️

I've posted pieces of this poem before, but never the full thing. It's about the highs and lows of bipolar disorder, but relate to it however you want! Thanks for reading.
