Delayed gratification
Let delight ripen
into a sweet juicy pear
True joy takes patience.
You look great
Bright lipstick fools them
into thinking I’m well. No
“How do you feel?”
Senseless

taste dulls on the tongue, food just
fuel to run this husk.

Clock ticks ricochet
like bullets of sound slowing
as the hour grows late.

catches your attention for
something you don’t need.

me sick. Going through laugh track
cop show withdrawal.

Never read the play
before you see it performed.

Tree falls in the forest analogy
I stop posting in
the blogosphere. No one reads
me. Do I exist?
Free at last
Today was her last
day on a job I said ‘don’t
quit’ two years ago.
