burger prayers

this is how  
the great work  
hurts   

was it in a dream ?  

stuck in habit traffic  
im a rabbit   

wish i had  
someone  
thinking for me  
in the herd   

im listening to  
myself  
im forced to hear  

a lot of words  
rhythm  
voodoo   

put them in pages  
like plants  
for our friends   

my love is stubborn   

too old for clowns

i was  
already  
on the outs   

jungle rains 
come closer  

i recall  
a circus  
all morning  

shoot me  
with darts  
for a show  

tell me  
something  
i dont know   

dont tell me  
im to old  
for clowns

ghost of the koleidoscope girl

first to fall 

a watering can 
in some woods 
drop a rope 

dozens of 
dead endings 

no matter . 

girl in the woods 
half sleeping 
slumped 

squirming 
on a chair 
of wood 

rainbow ribbon 
red to brown 

kaleidoscope girl 
strange colors 
a glimpse 
your light trail 

i know 
you know 
youre gone . 

well of bricks 
with a bucket 
' trust me ' 

she overheard 
dimensions 
overcame 
convention 

she was often  
left behind 

she never left 
the woods
