The sky is grey and empty. I pull on sweaters, zip jackets, tug at hoods, layer after layer to stay warm. I’ve always been pale, but I never looked this sick. The coffee pot stays on all day, and I still yawn every few minutes, crawl into bed, try to sleep. People call, but I don’t go out. Mail comes, but I don’t open it. ...

“You’re a fucking alcoholic with no sense of time or decency. I don’t know why I keep coming back to you, nothing ever changes. I need to get away from you for a long, long time. The ashtray is overflowing, and you just stamp the ash into the carpet like I’ll never notice. I hate you. I hate seeing your face at my door and your head on the pillow next to me when I wake up, and I hate making enough...

Take me to the church. I’ll sit next to you, knee-to-knee on the pew crusted with wine, and I bow my head in prayer to our hands brushing as we kneel.

If you wanted to love me the way I fumbled from your eyes, your lips, to gleaming teeth, the collarbones I repeatedly urged myself not to trace— I would close my mouth, no, shut my eyes, read with hands and syllables, the curve of your jaw and how it kisses your neck— I am just waiting to be asked.

iamthesexhornet:
Velveteen dreams With fingers woven through The in betweens Of my mind and lips
Sweet sighs and memories Hands on our hips Nights filled with rainy Roads and four hour trips
Distant now But so close before No I lie here wondering How to ask for more
More laughs and sighs A reprieve…

“She doesn’t know that she wasn’t my first love. It never came up. That was someone else, a girl I dated in high school,” he remembers, though he says she doesn’t cross his mind anymore. He reaches for the Marlboros he quit smoking in the hospital, pats an empty pocket and sighs. “We were young and dumb.” ”That’s any relationship,” ...

Seven days walking from Delphi wearing amulets at the bottoms of my pockets, turning thoughts like a stone too early thrown at the arena to contemplate martyrdom during grace’s brief interruptions. I’ve long quit the sky and deafened prophecy against this sinner’s metered drum, yet here I am again, praying at the temples of your gods, tithing olives at the doors for a fast...

A year’s worth of black ice and its freezing snow cakes the hillsides. It drags down the eaves of roofs in thick bullets always considering their options or drops down the chimney to blacken the once-smoking hearth, inducing a tremble shaken all around. I have strapped on the last of my winter weight, and feel I could sink through the floor.

There will be no way to hang the laundry by morning, and the children will look poor in their wrinkled pants and skirts, but I had to sleep the headache away.
