Book hoarder lets go
Finding new homes through
Amazon. Not selling. I’m
aiding adoptions.

Running errands
Off-list again, I

Looking glass spray paint

Morning ritual
Light breaks. I heed the
call to darkness, cup rich black

Ate bad stuff. Gained weight.
Hate myself. Still, I think, There’s
always tomorrow…
