Lovely Problems

 Lovely Problems


I love my problems 

I made them myself 

one day I’ll solve them 

I grow them instead 


my bank is on fire 

my love is dead 

piles of books teeter

only jelly in the fridge 


I’ve got these problems 

they occupy my thoughts 

I should be thankful 

for their hours of drama 


I see them in dreams 

with faces of dead lovers 

I ask them how they’ve been 

they tell me I know all about it

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

  Mayor McGuffin We are products of our times  these thoughts aren’t mine  everything passes through us  from sewers to the divine  I vibe on your signal  you wave you particle  merge into a molecule  divide for reaction deaf dumb and blind  slaves to the grind  compressed coal hearts  exploited diamond mines we see through the veil  dancing snake-tailed  impatient for the end  skipping enlightenment  I drive this carcass  despite warnings  from weather service  to deliver you a package
