And so I
Grafted myself to
You and you
Small broken flower
Less and somewhere
In between I
Knew that you
Would never grow
Without me music

CertainlyDon’t (to Bean)
You know that
Moment right before
Before those tears
Break the levees
Of your lids
And suddenly you
Find yourself crying
Yet you don’t
Know why do
You know because
I certainly don’t
OldFriends (to You)
The best chili
Is the chili
Prepared one day
And ate the
Next there’s something
About waiting that
Doubles its flavor
It steeps thickens
And deepens color
Parts just disappear
Until they land
Yet once again
And that mmmmm
That’s you too
My old friends
MiraclePrayer (to Bean)
And today perhaps
Perhaps just today
Your miracle happens
If I were
An Angel and
Could grant your
Wish I certainly
Would but like
So many others
I’m a demon
Looking for my
Own salvation in
This crippling world
Of abject damnation
Writing this I
Pray that you
Are blessed by
Yours long before
I’m given mine
For that is
The closest thing
To a miracle
I can muster
Hellos (to Bean)
There is something
About the surprise
Of a fresh
Overnight snow fall
Something crisp chilling
And clean something
Just like your
Smile the other
Night upon arrival
It brought newness
To the area
Season of Christmas
Of surprises and
Hope that maybe
Last time will
Be the last
Time that we
Say goodbye and
From now on
A simple series
Of just hellos
Wonderful fresh crisp
And warming hellos
