Masks
You see a
woman
well-groomed
& laughing
with a
drink in
her hand
at a
fast-paced
dance venue
& then
you see her
again on
your way
home a
little ways
down an
alley,
leaning against
a brick wall,
smoking with
tears in
her eyes.

to know
what he was
talking about
but he

is what
he was
talking about
if you
know what
I’m
talking about.

Living off Dying
I dread
the prospect
of my
old age
becoming
someone else’s
livelihood.

Flecks of Eternity
Knowing he
had not
long to
live he
gathered small
flecks of
eternity &
kept them
in a
glass jar
like fireflies.

People who
fly all
over the
world in
planes are

If Life Were a Radio
If life
were a
