"The Ex"

maybe loneliness is soberness
and couplehood is drunkenness,
and thats why i can only stand
to call you when i've fallen down.

"The Backseat"

i felt something different while
driving my old mazda last night,
the weight of friends in the backseat
harbingers of more precious cargo to come.

"The Notice"

why must we always give notice
when we want the least to be noticed,
and, once we're gone,
why do we worry that weve gone unnoticed?
