Submerged, forgotten breaths
sighing under my sunken chest.
Light dimming like
a drive down the hillside,
rolling and dimming.
Space between
fire and ice,
filling my lung,
vessels of frost and spice.
Slow marks from my lash,
eyes closed, death, no splash.
Day 1. There isn’t anything I can say
to make you see yourself
like you see the world.
We both know,
I have tried.
Day 2. When you drank too much, I told you to eat.
I meant in general.
Day 3. It hurts me the way
you walk around in your body
like it is never small enough.
Day 4. It hurts others too, the way
you are at war with yourself.
But they can go and find
peace in their bedroom,
I lie in bed with my covers wrapped
around me. Save me,
I tell them, there is a war going on out there.
Day 5. There is nothing comfortable
about they way you pick at your salads.
You told me you like vegetables.
Day 6. You take 3 showers a day,
use hand sanitizer times two, and
you always make sure everything is clean.
Especially when I catch a cold.
There is nothing I can do protect myself
from catching what you have, and
it is so, so contagious.
Day 7. Your thoughts are like the smell of cigarettes.
You cannot get rid of them, you are addicted
and we can all smell it.
-K.
he’s a dreamer
When I first met you
I was not acutely aware but I knew
That every bump in your perfection
Was what I would grow to love
Yes, I didn’t know, but I already knew
That the sun mountain-crests of rebelling hair,
The red spots between your brows in that lonely upper region of face
Your not so graceful jaw and tilted nose
Would have hold of me very soon
I knew that the way you looked off into space
Your lips bitten
Your eyelashes sudden commandeers over your dreams
Would have me falling down that steep slippery slope again
I knew
I knew and I didn’t stop it
Because in fact, It was already too late
To fall out of love
With You
Sorry We’ve been M.I.A

Ode to a great Pokémon master
Merry Ninja Christmas
Have yourself a merry ninja christmas
let your steps be light
Go unseen through the world
Always ready to strike
Silent to all
Revealed to none
Until the sound of “Attack”
Has filled your lungs
When Santa comes
Climbing down your Chimney with glee
Remind him who’s boss
with a shuriken to the knee
untitled
Through the mist and fog
You hear the rattling of a metal fence
A wall between you like a sheild
They can’t see you
You hear their screams through the night
Feeling suffocated
Like everythings closing in all around you
You reach your hand out
Tears streaming down your face
Standing there alone and helpless
As you watch them fading further into the dark
