This Glacial Pace

Heavy focused eyes
hidden inside
signals from satellites.
We slip blinking by
shouldering high
the weight of several lives.
We all fall in line
as we decide
that which we must sacrifice.
We appreciate
that we’ll never find
the happenstance keeping us alive.
Let’s fold back the ceiling
to let this sun inside
shed some light on sick shapes in the shadows
If we lose all feeling
Oh honey I don’t mind
a little numbness will be the least of our troubles
We were understated
to a fault
to a fault
this glacial pace is not enough
It gets easier to say that I’m alright.
It gets easier to say that I’m just fine.
It gets easier.

Neighborhood Ghosts

Say you remember our neighborhoods.
Will our faces haunt the spaces we once stood?
Or have I forgotten?
Girl, I wish I could.
Bloodshed and tragedy still plagues these woods.
But I don’t understand them.
Our neighborhood ghosts seek witnesses.
"Please don’t surrender."
And "keep up that fight."
An audible rolling of eyes.
No hell is under musk melon sky.
These ghosts are lazy.
These ghosts don’t have the time.
If you said something
along the lines of giving up.
I couldn’t blame you anymore
But If you can’t feel them.
Somehow they’ll learn to let it go.
They couldn't blame you anymore.

No Light / No Time

I couldn’t stand
for weeks on end.
Head in the sand.
Could I please just leave it in?
It seems fine.
No light, no time.
I wrote it down
Everything that I said.
Sick of these same words
But I just keep speaking them.
It seems fine.
No light, no time.
Folded my hand
Again and again.
These sinking feelings
Just lead me to sinking ships.
It seems fine.
No light, no time.
Squandered remains
Of this fortunate grip.
Fingers are useless
appendages without hands.
It seems fine.
No light, no time.
