I am getting a cold, possibly strep throat, but I have no insurance to see a doctor. I hope it doesn't get worse.



i'm lucky to be under
this same sky that held
the exhale from your first breath.
like a ring on a pillow of clouds,
by you my tongue may stutter.
but my gift heart screams clear and swells,
to burst between the wrapped lengths
of its bowed ribbon cell

but i am still alive, in love and
wide eyed in my time.
not a mummy shrinking in its cloths.
there's a moth flock in my gut growing,
a tug at my groin like tides trying to
pull moon towards them, i can't ignore them
and when we say your name, our tongues catch flame
and you wonder why we ain't got nothing to say

but your painted pony is fading..
lost like a snake skin in high grass,
and out there thrashing like a pet bird
caught in a jet stream, that's me.
you count them blessings cause your net worth
oughta be less cream in your best dreams.
but god put a song on my palm
that you can't read
i'll be embalmed with it long before you'll see
