it’s a placid,
violent scene
this happiness and unhappiness,
satisfaction, but
too many nights stalled in
favor of both the making
and scattering of ashes-
denouement for my throat
my carpet
and an anxious contentedness
somewhat like things going too well.
things go well, too,
i guess, but it’s so
hard to believe sometimes
even harder to write and be read
grasping for the same corner
of that same sheet
in a souvenir sent
to yr. long lost sister, with
a photograph of some casual,
favorite place
It’s best left unsaid
sometimes so you can keep it yours
overlaid in your vision
on your table
and in your books
the last thing you see
before you sleep tonight,
hoping it will do with an alright irony
and haunt you
and haunt you
