Me and My God

 Me and My God


me and my god 

go out for a walk 

sometimes she’s silent 

sometimes she talks too much 


about the state of the world 

her favorite perfume 

and anything else that 

crosses the block 


if I can get a word in 

I sometimes ask for 

small favors 

whether I deserve them or not 


my god likes to test my faith 

she hides my keys 

sends me idiots 

on Mondays 


to teach me patience 

to share some wisdom 

if I behave real well 

she sends me someone to be with 


and then I can forget 

my dear loneliness

that other god 

I often cheat on her with

Life of the ****

  Life of the ****   I love your body   I made a map that I study   there’s just one thing   that distracts me from loving   ideas haunt me   they take me out for shopping   through imagination   stretching endlessly   tell me what you’re building   behind those eyes   come live with me   in the life of the mind   we go from the streets   to penthouse high   but there’s something   more precious by design   enough parties   enough clothes   can’t spend hours   talking about sports   give me a novel or a film obscure my mind’s got enough   junk to last months
