Black Hole

the hole is far larger than
we though it would be

statistically speaking
(the first two years don’t count)
it shouldn’t have happened this way

what use now is medical expertise?
there never was a doctor in the house
just a lot of regret
and a lot of hate

and one scared little girl
who wishes she was god
(because then she wouldn’t have to ask

to beg

for love)

because of her own stupidity

Absense

They got a divorce, Aylin and Zagreus, and now it’s up to me to pretend that I’m happy about it.

All for the best in the best of all possible worlds, right?

I fucking hate gardening.

Don’t Tell Me

baby, don’t tell me that you lost your soul
I’ve been carrying mine ’round in a bowl
so at least you don’t have to look at yours

dirty thing that it is I’m kind of surprised
that I haven’t gotten rid of it yet
(thrown it out with all that emotional baggage
and the entire contents of my filing cabinets)

I’m drowning under a sea of my childhood
kicking and screaming as hundreds of years
of fallible ways and infantile curses

press down upon me and I heave
HEAVE and up comes the soul
like so much poisoned shellfish.

Make Up Your Mind

You don’t want him dependent, but it hurts when he’s not.
