Slip Permission

 Slip Permission 


I screwed up 

and I got back 

to where I swore 

I’d never find myself again 


amongst the ranks 

of fallen men 

that familiar smell 

of failure I know too well 


and you move inches 

away from me 

seeing less of what you once 

saw in me 


I’m falling by degrees 

you warned me 

there are no 

guarantees 


and how I want to be back 

in your graces 

as soon as I can 

face myself 


until then I promise 

I’m not enjoying this 

only a little it feels 

too fucking good to happen again

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
