Literature
five people who mean a lot
a: thanks for teaching me how to laugh—sometimes it is nice to get lost in rolling laughter and hysterical giggles. around you i'm unconscious of worldly things as our jubilance brings me to greater heights and it becomes easier, and also desirable, to live in our moments.
c: your passion can ignite my sometimes dry-stick soul—and you know better than most that i'm not the kind that sits around the bonfire, but with you i'm reminded that there's more to life than the to-do list and i can relegate it to kindling as we roast marshmallows on its remains.
a: you've always had my back, my darling, and it can't be easy. i'm fairly heavy
Literature
Ashes to Ashes
Once upon a time
there was a house
haunted by a monster.
It raged, night and day.
Sometimes it slept
but nothing was spared.
So I packed a bowl,
lit a match, and I
smoked the monster out
until it became
an empty house,
an empty husk,
where once
a person
used to be.
Literature
My green heart would burn
My green heart would burn,
For a few coins and a warm meal of shared graces
Its’ auburn rivers cease their wandering
For the counting of them, and the writing of their names;
Its’ solemn long-limbed cells, sold, stripped and sawed
To suture deep cuts between two silken brows
A multitude of murmuring hush, to unbind
The heartstrings that connect, constrain and contain us.

NaPo #17. Yeah. So, medicinal chemistry is sexy.
