i. In which I don't sleep (I watch)
Beneath thick eyebrows
Midnight eyes smile; flutter shut
Dandelion wings
ii. In which I'm not cliche (just happy)
I kissed you.
No stars. No words.
Just warm. (Like a blanket.)
iii. In which a word is redefined (which word?)
At sunrise, he told me,
"Anger is a form of love"
As tears burnt my cheeks.

A Letter of Understanding
Dear Heart,
Let us come to an understanding.
Welcome to your wake up call.
You are a fool. I'm sorry, but it is true.
Life isn't a fairy tale.
You knew this, always.
There is no such thing as happy endings.
The frog you wanted to kissed… he'd still be a frog.
And that prince?
He was perfect- sweet, smooth talking, a dream come true.
Until you found out he was only charming; not sincere.
Sitting on the steps as the dawn falls around you, waiting for him like in the movies?
Honey, he's already moving on. Those tail lights you see driving away in your mind's eye?
Yeah, they're his.
Never trust love; never think for a minute it's true.

i don't need to be an atheist to love scifi
someone told me the universe has no room for my gods
someone told me that there's no such thing as a good thing
that can also be a big thing
well i'm not too good with words but um
i subsisted on stories of an elephant-man that held the universe in his belly
planets, stars; they did not deny the existence of space
my gods dance among the stars, with bodies made of dark matter.
loki blew fire into the sun when the void threatened it and
odin was the original person who looked up and looked further
and maybe said 'hey look at that i think we could use a planet there'.
you see - i think we can pilot our ships through the birfrost
and whisper
Literature
Silence
Silence deafens
It screams at me from blank walls so I fill them with photographs
So they’ll seem less empty, and so will I
Silence welcomes
When the world is just too loud and too chaotic and too restless
And all I want in this moment is quiet
Silence echoes
From the depths of the empty beer bottles that line my bedside table
They promised fulfillment or at least escape the night before
Silence lies
It tells me that I am not good enough for a house filled with love
The kind that comes from the heart of a man
Silence comes
The moment I lay my child’s sleepy head to rest and surround her with pillows
So that she may never know

I love the phrase "dandelion wings," it's just so perfect and I can picture fragile wings like dandelion seeds blowing into the wind!
