I used to have a miniature sand-garden,I used to rake it out when I was drunk,Or mulling something over. There’s something to be said about a canvas with rules,But no answers.

one of the artist’s statements (2014)
as I kissed him,his lips begged me to write,his hands,and pulse,begged. she whispered stories she told no-one,and my fingers oozed words against the fabric of her shirt, I don’t know if they know how they inspire, or if they want more credit than I’ve given, but they begged me, judge,each and …
On Children (2013)
I see other people’s kids,And I cry. They’re beautiful. I dunno if I’ll ever be ready to do that,again.
Not Yet a Home (2013)
This house still feels—like a place I am,Rather than a place I live. What without those memories of you blowing me on the staircase,Or that time another you snuck in the window,That time we heard the owl under the cover of covers,Or that stupid spaghetti dinner I insisted on making you,The time you called me …
Objectively Unhealthy Optimism. (2015)
There are a lot of things I don’t like about myself. But I’ll know I love you,if I can’t remember them some summer daywhen you ask what they are.
Not really a love poem; I just really like blankets. (2013)

No really. (2013)
Let’s tell secrets– I’m listening to Panic at the Disco! Ain’t the sort of thing you’d expect, Least not far as I expect you’d expect. I expect you expect me to listen to some Johnny Cash, Maybe some death-metal, Alternative-indie-folk-rock– I do. But tonight, Tonight’s got a “Haven’t you people ever heard of– closing …
No Raven (2013)
Mhmm, in film this would be a stormy night,‘n you’d come ’round rap, rap, rappin’ on my chamber door. you want in, you want in, I’m cry-cringin’ on the balls of my feet, curled up ‘n crawlin’ dead-weight ‘n bawlin’ I remind me of my first girlfriend, I was …
