My Old Home (recommended by a friend from Xiaohongshu)

my top lip gets bitten and there's no end to 
the skin that is left-it would be cute if I 
pretended to enjoy this nervousness
sometimes I'm too scared to leave
the house-my book: I will be grateful
to have something to read, something
to put my anxiety at ease-hey you,
it's me
how much of my life is defined by
an unintentional body mass,
pick up the fucking phone. please.
what I mean to the world is what
I mean to myself-I mean, how do
you separate people from the 
brain matter that made this
possible in the first place?
It's love, right?
if it feels like i'm skipping thoughts
it's because I refuse to pick
a direction, not without lack of
trying, trying, trying, trying
if this ambition is a flame, 
how do I move forward
without petering out?


unfocused blurb (more blurb work to be done)

blackout poem. this is a form I haven't used much, but it is useful to narrow the scope of the work, i think the real meat of this piece is understanding what was lost

Thursday Blues

Road Rage (draft 1)

Fuck You Buddy

title is in the works but right now its "mutually beneficial"

Mutually Beneficial (first draft)

The first draft is virtually the same, but for revisions, I am considering more religious imagery and the environment of being in that car (for immersion)

SALVATION (draft 2)

Self Portrait- Shitty acrylic

Revisions to focus on intimacy; still in progress

Wayfarer of a short life (draft 2)

Wayfarer of a short life
