The Tao of regret


make damn sure you
take everything that's yours
plant the flowers in the springtime
like you promised.
when you eat your flower meals
reread the scenes of yesteryear
when the universe settles
with your tongue stuck in your jaw
like my friend says.
Spread your legs
its your god given right
and raise your voice
at me, through me
when you reread the lines
the ink dried
the flow, the ebb of life
the rhythm of your choices
will echo on deaf ears.

pressed between
musty yellowed paper
you'll find verbs
waiting to react

new blog site

I took off the old blog that I had because it was mostly call outs for myself and reminders for self. I'll still have the link somewhere on my site in case someone was paying attention to those posts. This will be, well I don't really know. Probably the same poems I post on my myspace page and stuff.
