Carving in Glass

 Carving in Glass


If you knew at the time

you would’ve taken more care


gone a bit slower

milked it all afternoon


instead you assumed

it was what was owed to you


as your mother’s favorite

the future assured


and yet it’s always been you

even as the other faces and times


have commandeered

the view


you were wrong to assume

a lack of awareness


on your part at that time

wouldn’t have any effect


on your future

Non-Binaries

Non-Binaries never wrong nor right  neither black nor white  always poor framing  truth escapes while waiting    you I can’t deny I can’t explain “I” there’s another dimension  we’re always missing    easy solutions feel good  crushing doubts with boots  if nature only gave us straight lines  if god was on our side    it’s never green nor orange  look to the forests  subtleties you miss  haunt dreams in an embrace    not those ones and oh’s  didn’t write the code  swallowing contradictions  before they explode
