I don’t know. the invisible omnipresent God? your mom or your dad or your childhood bully friend? the source of your trauma…

God’s Raisins

Demons, Mercury & I

Coffee, perhaps? — the passage of time. like the perfect circle in my coffee cup. I find myself coming back to the question how do I actually do this?

Paresthesia

Honesty through self-disgust — I am very irritable. I don’t want to be this way. although somewhere inside I completely justify it. first, a gentle caress, an inquiry, a request now, drowning in your grip I sense the upcoming enveloping death. arms, thighs, neck inside and out of my stomach palms and fingers overrun sucking me into…

Once upon a springtime — summer was just about to bloom. but I witnessed it early. an image of a wide open first floor apartment window. the sun is bright and beaming, consuming the whole scene. despite the brightness, it’s still very comforting for my eyes to gaze at the lush greenery outside. it’s so…
