A Little (more) About Me

I am self-unemployed.

I have another side of me also,

all wussy.

Catapults into the darkness,

I like to think,

grave as a stranger.

My dread of my father

is great. Also money

and advice.

Also hammers and mistakes.

That February when

you stopped calling,

and the trees moped around

like teenagers.

As the maker of the motion

I can speak

to the motion.

It’s fucked.

Handcart to the parking lot,

I like to say,

ghost ship to the horizon.

I am right now one centimeter

from humming. OK.

I am humming.
