i get out of bed
every morning
i drink my coffee
black
i smile
i fake it
i hold myself up to the light
and look around
at the words
at the motions
at the faces
i make
as i try to find meaning
in phrases
that dump from my mouth
like a truck
dropping dirt
into the earth
giving back
what's already been given
taking in
what hasn't been taken
i get out of bed
every morning
i drink my coffee
black.

when they took my hands
i smiled
when they asked for my feet
i shrugged
when they needed my arms
i said okay
when they went for my legs
i gave them that too
and when they came back
for more parts
to more things
to more places
without question
i gave it all to them
but when they took my heart
when they tore it from my chest
after i pleaded
after i begged
after i fell down
and couldn't get back up
that's when i gave in
that's when i gave out
that's
when i was done.

Images of Chelsea Michigan on Thanksgiving 2009
midnight in chelsea a song by jon bon jovi
_____________________________________
midnight
just me and my beer
sitting on the front porch
watching the snow fall
watching love
fall from the sky
is there anything better
then the soulful flight
of wet sorrow
dropping down from heaven
and leaving perfect kisses
on your cheeks
at midnight
in chelsea.

i start drinking
writing
thinking
and keep going
i start telling myself
all the things
i don't want to know
but already do
i start drinking
writing
moving
papers
pens
shifted gears
blown numbers
years of attrition
the keys keep getting hit
sometimes gently
sometimes manically
sometimes
not at all
missed completely
much like my life
much like my days
where all things meet
exchange phone numbers
give out hugs
give out meaning
and promise to call
but never do
i start drinking
writing
lying
living
only to give up
walk away
and do nothing
in through the out door
out through the in door
failed and alone
predictable at best
miserable at worst
i start drinking
writing
thinking
dying.

About Me
-
i was born in a small town outside of zimbabwee. i learned to knit at the tender of age of 7. After a short stint with the merchant marines and a brief but unfortunate event as a pig farmer i became a roady for the rolling stones. Now adays i watch over two misguided beagles and darn socks with my time away from being a consultant for the ethical treatment of fireflys.
