I did something recently that scared me in the best possible way. I put on my first exhibition. The Life and Death of Love became more than a book for a few weeks. I painted the cover across a wall, scattered autumn leaves across the floor, and let birdsong play in the background. Framed photographs … Continue reading The Exhibition

The Wronged Man (poem)
You play with love like it’s fire,as if it doesn’t burn you from the inside out.But it does burn.And you cry in the ashesas if you didn’t light every match.You take, break, misshape hearts like clay,then beg us all to stay,while we stay warmand you turn cold,searching for something new to hold.Not someone.Some thing.Until boredom … Continue reading The Wronged Man (poem)

A Little Broken
Some days I wake up and I feel nothing. I want nothing. I am nothing. Some days you will hold me and Experience nothing. Touch nothing. Caress nothing. Some days I'm still a little broken. My heart isn't always open, but it will always reopen for you. You see... Some days I see nothing but … Continue reading A Little Broken
TIME
Time is a valuable thing. We abuse it and ignore it, try to beat it and slow it, speed it up and drop it and never can stop it. Maybe if we learn we can use it for good, protect it and use it for all that it's worth like a teacher in school like … Continue reading TIME
Hotel Sheets (08.19)
I thought I had it figured out Mind encased in concrete Damn this wine tasting so sweet My eyes on you, discrete We fucked up the hotel sheets I'm fucking up my mind White lines and glitter so divine While you once more were mine
