Logic and Hope

Logic and hope
I told you so and one more chance
Reality and love
Definitely does not and might
Truth and self delusion

Words

I know
Words
That have to be said
But mean nothing.

Ground Poem

I love rustic food.

People should not be afraid of chewing.

Obstet-servation

Looking after your baby is like driving a fast car without brakes -

You have to be reactive.

Dis-Rupture

Disruptions or developments may not seem ideal.

But sometimes the real is the ideal.

Tour-ettes

After this little sojourn, you’ll find that
Man-you-are ar-tic-u-l-‘ate
When you realise, finally, that you
Can’t
Keep ignoring it, or walking
past-it,
and that you
are-soley
responsible.

You’re probably
As-king,
“How
Far c-an
I go, how much
More-on
The
clock
Can I get before
She-t…
ells me she’s gone, for good”.

You are the chemical
Prec…
ursor that causes self-immolation, but I wouldn’t change anything
For-quits
So much you have done is incredible, and yet
de-cred…
ible. You
Can’t
Call it love, by any other name.

Calling Card

I called you up to tell you I was bleeding.
I called you up to tell you I did this hideous thing.
I called you up to tell you that I did something that went against the source

I called you up to tell you that I did what I thought was best

I called you up to tell you that I was tired
I called you up to tell you I used my better judgment against my better judgment

I called you up to ask if you could do anything to help me
I called you up to ask if you had a different perspective
I called you up to ask if you could tell me what could dissolve this despair
I called you up to ask if you understood
I called you up to ask if you could sit with me a while
I called you up to ask if you changed your mind about changing your mind

I didn’t call you up because it was too late
I didn’t call you up because I didn’t want you to see me like this
I didn’t call you up because I didn’t think you really wanted to know
I didn’t call you up because I didn’t think you would accept what happened
I didn’t call you up because this isn’t the person you loved
I didn’t call you up because it wouldn’t change anything

I didn’t call you up because it would change everything
I didn’t call you up because I wanted to be the person that you loved
I didn’t call you up because you didn’t accept what had happened
I didn’t call you up because you didn’t want to know

I didn’t call you up because I didn’t want it to be you who found me

I didn’t call you up because it was too late.
