Light City

it’s hiding, just behind my eyes

i cannot call it a creature, for 

it has no face, no limbs, not 

even a heart. it is just a shadow. 

a lingering memory that disappears

whenever i focus too hard.

Inverted Vertigo

I Gave a Spider Water

...

I held a snake.

I gave a spider water And I may have seen it wave;

I don't know if it was thanking me.

But I knew the snake was curious. Its skin felt cold on mine—

But the spider? I couldn't tell If it was thanking or

Warning me.

At least the snake Could show me its eyes.

The spider just waved and waved.

defeating myself

i unclench my fists. 

my skin takes a gasp of

breath. begs for a release

from this constant tension. 

i release the weakness 

that lives inside me. turn away.

Poems are just word structures, sometimes devoid of poetry. Poetry goes far beyond words. Images are words too... Poetry is how we use these images.

The color of the wings is just perfect. It's so well done!

Fly, my broken wings

Imitate

You run

And I follow

But the chasing I do

Has left me hollow

i write about the ocean like it is a lover

but the truth is it terrifies me. 

it can choose to still, to reflect

the sky and all its shimmering 

promises. it can rise, roar, and

swallow.
