the
sun
sang
for
old
man
2017
so
long
friend
happy
trails

daughter
I
grew
you
from
my
heart
I
love
you
I
love
you
I
love
you

I
thought
by
now
you’d
realize
there
ain’t
no
way
to
hide
your
lyin’
eyes

- eagles

please
can
you
teach
me
how
to
shape
shift
my
emotions
get
in
the
way

she
had
a
datsun
or
a
rabbit
I
can’t
remember
the
bell
tolls

I
feel
all
the
time
like
a
cat
on
a
hot
tin
roof
a
hot
tin
roof

the
night
is
long
and
dark
and
young
slick
daddy
we’ve
only
just
begun

first
snow
street
lamp
light
you
know
the
one
perfect
pure
blue
white
that
I
like

christmas
eve
is
for
crying
and
then
washing
your
face
in
the
snow
with

please
moon
moon
please
I
haven’t
been
myself
no
the
words
are
not
my
own

he
skipped
the
chuck
palahniuk
party
I
heard
ducks
laugh
at
the
solstice

the
trees
mossy
fingers
clasping
around
me
and
I
can’t
see
the
sun

the
moss
is
suffocating
me
the
grey’s
smothering
me
I
can’t
breathe

driving
into
the
snow
headfirst
that’s
the
way
I
go
into
the
snow

oh
he’s
right
here
next
to
me
please
santa
bring
my
baby
back
to
me

I
saw
a
dream
the
new
moon
insisted
on
it
I’ll
need
a
warm
blanket

we
laughed
at
our
bad
poems
and
vowed
that
we’d
write
them
until
we
died

I
poured
the
glass
two
thirds
way
up
thought
who
am
I
kidding
poured
some
more

I
need
that
back
that
look
I
just
gave
you
I
didn’t
mean
it
I
didn’t

arabian
angel
darkest
jewel
her
warm
heart’s
cold
to
the
touch

I
wrote
you
a
text
I
erased
then
wrote
you
another
I
erased

I
just
need
some
looney
tunes
a
neon
room
calgon
take
me
away

green
black
foggy
washington
highway
I
hadn’t
forgotten
about

anything
you
want
one
of
these
crazy
old
nights
you
got
it
baby

I’ll
tell
you
everything
pour
me
a
glass
lean
into
my
breath
we’ll
share

I
feel
like
I
write
pretty
poems
always
then
I
read
her
poems

let
me
be
your
blessing
in
disguise
say
my
name
like
lamé
on
wine

it’s
not
fair
that
I
should
think
of
you
so
much
I've
other
things
to
do

maybe
I
should
go
mad
a
garden
where
everyone
wears
white
sounds
nice

it’s
the
moon
she
made
my
head
swoon
my
heart
fall
and
fall
and
fall
and
fall

I
know
my
eyes
betray
me
boy
how
otherwise
would
you
believe
me

white
jungle
canopy
your
arms
I
could
live
in
them
with
ease
you
beast

I
stayed
up
all
night
reading
dreamt
of
my
grandmother’s
pinochle
hands
