  • Ether drum Beating in our hearts Loudly calling, The blood rushes to and through The amygdala, the hippocampus, The striatum and the orbital cortex, A provocative horde emerges In circuits burning inward Love sings Encircling our minds like a halo, The periapsis swings softly, Unbalanced, Wavering Escape No closure in historical romance, Only sad and…

  • everyday after every vector my eyes fall upon stones overturned places I’ve already been moments I’ve lived before evidence of my being there searching for the unattainable breathing, conscious of all this fragile space expanding and deflating orbits I cannot escape ungovernable, the id stretches and snaps back what little writhing things flourish in the…

  • there are superpositions wherein parasitic raiders descend like bats, shrieking echoes from their eyes or hiding underneath the quiet moments of zero kelvin, all movements trapped where there is peace, if only in these cold fractals. secrets reside in those denominations, silent, waiting for us like spiders of another kind, free to move about and…

  • juggle these thin differences up and down and back and forth like, low batteries, low fuel gauges, low balances, empty glasses, pockets, wake up slow fears crawl through dirty thoughts, personal fences erected each morning to be contested. earbuds conceal differences as we stumble past ourselves, one another in the blank delusion, look side to…
