It’s day two
& I already feel
shriveled, lungless,
overworked.
I’ve been living
out of my suitcase
since I got home,
sleeping
on the couch &
leaving my laundry
on the floor.
Everything in my refrigerator
screams 12 days too late
& rent money is due.
She’s slapping me
in the face,
you see.
Depression,
that heartless bitch
with the long
spider legs
& hot mouth-
she enjoys
throwing me
into furniture-
up against
thin walls
& having her way with me.

Two Years Later
She asked him gently, “Do you love me?”
In his long silence, she found closure,
And left her love under a willow tree.
Literature
all of your lives have been addicts
my cat
has turned
my front porch
into a graveyard
as if to say:
this is what we need
but tonight
she tried to lick my claws
back to hands
& I said to her:
"I do not have 9 lives
to spend on the bathroom floor
with 13-hour insomnia
can't we just kill the mockingbirds
pull the concrete
out of our throats
& get this dying
over with
already"
but
she's got 8 lives down
& doesn't answer questions twice
Literature
This Passes As Poetry
Sometimes I feel,
A particular feeling.
It fills me with feely feels,
And that makes me want to die.
Or maybe cry, or sigh,
Or maybe I'll just lie.
And pass this off as actual poetry...

I feel like a whore.
My writing style is changing
and I couldn't care less.
