rainy day

i like to think
i'm thick-skinned
with strong bones and
a fierce gaze
but i have these big eyes
that are just waiting
for a rainy day

"you should let me re-do your life. we could make a reality show out of it."
"yeah, the first nationally televised suicide hanging. you would be rich beyond your dreams."

pounce
05/01/2009 12:43 p.m.
the cat
is sly and stealthy
her eyes on every
possible predator
she is always on the defense
behind her meditative serenity

take something
that belongs to a cat
and she will not howl
or plead for it back
she will simply put out her claws
and pounce

keep them
03/27/2009 01:05 a.m.
there you are.
you're quite a distance away
but i could recognize your silhouette
across the earth

i know you well.
i've seen every type of smile
every form of laughter
i've seen you both excited
and dreadful

from this distance
i can look at you objectively;
i still want to climb into your eyes
i still want to taste your smirk

you're heaven to me.
(everything you've shown me
and everything you're yet to reveal)

i'm afraid
not of your secrets
but the fact that you keep them

sometimes i wish
i wasn't so damn crazy
about you

leash/square one
03/25/2009 01:26 a.m.
i have become
a master of
sitting silently
with my rage
at the tip of my tongue
but never loosening my grip
on the leash

*

every relationship
has the same routine
where when things start to go wrong
the woman first begs
but then demands
for change
and the man, his eyes to floor,
apologizes and recognizes
what needs to be done
and things look bright until
one week later
they're back at square one
