Slayer

 Slayer


My apology is my 

greatest weapon 

like hellfire down 

from heaven 


just when you think 

I’ll escalate 

I’m on my knees 

or prostrate 


genuflecting 

to the goddess 

Desdemona 


how “sorry” works miracles 

how “my fault” cures cancers 

how tears find their victims 

in the heart of these skirmishes 


and it ends with the warmth of love 

it all makes everything 

back itself up 

and we can both admit that we really won

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
