Who I am ? I can't remember. I change my mask, I become the host of a dead person's memory. So many times, I travel back to time and no one remember me. What is my true self ? I don't know if I'm one of this roles or me. Tell me, who I am ? Tell me...my old friend.

let's just talk about the weather
there is a prison
frozen
in an endless
void
an ocean
of air
devoid of
motion
it's all
gone
charcoal
and slate
as the body
keeps the heart
but shares its state
still singing with a stolen voice.
still falling in love with strangers.
too many after-midnights:
manufacturing weather.
pretending not to understand
the languages of hunger.
as if the flapping birds you
call your hands don't thrum
with excess and
joy alike.
as if you are not forever lost: in these patterns.
in the mystery
of laughter.
as if you are not still just a visitor to your own body.
though never
half as clever as
the raging storms

let me be
the pleasure
in forgetting
let me spend forever
learning
the ways you say unending
I want a wreck I
can connect with
some un-
settled sun
to be sung
and soon strung
from
strings
previously
unattached
a heartsong
plucked
in resplendent
collapse
breath snatched
in gasps
hands clasped
spanning gaps
and gulfs
engulfed
in our
grasp
a long longing
that laughs
as it lasts
we'll make
memories
(a thing
ofthe past)

Literature
From November Until March
neighbors disappear
turning silence into art
(delicate painting)
hibernating heart
embrace sleep so as to dream
(beauty in waiting)
gray skies stretch for months
disguise a depth of feeling
under freezing fog

oh, I see.
she wants a steady hand, and smooth script
stretching towards infinity.
she wants those wanton words
wrapped in needless syllables.
she wants what she wants. what she wants
is not this.
not my short & stumbling text; one word
tumbling toward the next. not these
scribbled, sloppy secrets; chopped up
and half-confessed. she'd much rather view
a ten-cent vocabulary flexed...
but I digress.
my hopeless,
broken english
speaks volumes.
(mostly, it talks about me.)
sometimes, it says "hey!
we're doing new & exciting things
with heartbreak
down
here."
sometimes, it just
screams
and screams
and screams
and screams -
