and when distraction ends
and life begins
theres the uttering
and muttering
to retrieve
to make kind what was once cruel
and the distraction of the dumb
is habitual
returning
(me)
to the truth of
honest
true
desire
and the distraction of the less than
is not to fill
but to forget
if even for a moment
of why it cannot be
even though
i cannot help
my heart
and the weeks that have now turned to months
to life that is
everyday living
i now must begin
to face a truth
one too many
of everything thats been so easy to
cover up
replace
with
wanton
less than stimulating
moments
just like television
sometimes the brain kill
is necessary
to find where it is that
(my)
heart
begins
and my heart is with you
and my desire is with you
and my wish is for you
and my missing is you
and my dealing is you
and the objects in my hands
im setting down
the paper dolls that ive been dressing up
and i can hear my friends a whispering
i can hear their voices in my head
and how they save me daily
and how they bring me back to mine
last night i dreamt of chocolate cake
and somehow it tasted good
inbetween the headache that was waking me
reminding me in sleep
the truth of
reality
and
the
fantasy
and one day i will write this thing
that is gestating
and wonder where it will take me
oh lover of words
oh word lovers
godots of my daily
i dont want the hyperboles that are whizzing round my head
i want the fruition of my sentences
the same fruitions
that brought us here
that keep us here
that will not let us go
we are made of water
and everything between us now
is just
steam
