if you haven’t noticed love

tide is out

meaning we can find all our homes

all our not-quite-sentient selves

in the shadows of today

 

rocks befriended by furry green fingers

all their sons peppering my toes in the sand

in the orange-burnt chill of sunset

we are all philosophers

 

all the things I have ever wanted to do

I twist between my fingertips here

all my love & rage spent on you

in the east

 

mutiny or goosebumps

we would all run far to feel

and the rising tide crumbles my resolve…

all I want is to be here

a dazzling display of imagery

a dazzling display of imagery and knotted thoughts twisting through my mind like a lullaby!


peace, pot, tequila shot

Jesus loves us, stoned or not
