 Half court and a wager,
dirty lot behind the Y.
Baseline was weeds,
wasn’t it?  Cracks in the key.
Hot as hell spilled over and
tread was off the ball,
wasn’t it?
Still had its air,
enough to hold shape.
Short sleeves and hope
and busted hoop
but the rim was straight,
bit of net left.

Half court and a wager,
tattoo on the line,
dribble and again,
you one armed it, didn’t you?
Caught air and chain link
after a bounce or two,
wide left and short.
I blamed it on
the wind.

Half court and a wager,
quarter sized first
if banks were open
or string music
was to follow.
Leapt into it, didn’t I,
all laceless shoes
and checkerboard.
I knew when it left
my hand,
dirty lot behind some Y,
cracks in the key,
you said you knew
before that.

My lips find your scars,

like kissing can be healing,

like they know the ache.

Where do we bury
the bones of our dreams,
what graveyard, what headstone
marks the resting place of our passions?  
We mourn them,  often when their
passing is fresh, flowers on the upturned earth.
We marvel as it settles, shovel stabs
healing as if stitched, grass returns.  

We forget, we’re built for this,
the amnesia that keeps us alive,
forget to recall what it was we buried,
forget who we were before the loss.

In some fever dream of night
we sit straight up with voice hoarse
from the shouting.  
Haunted, we say, and hear the
whisper of what we entombed.

Grab our shovels and unsettle the earth,
dig until you hit wood and regret,
dig until mud soaked and sobbing,
dig until that whisper becomes a scream.  

Do not mourn what can be revived,
pound on the lid you hid them beneath
and shake the bones of your hope.
Call this excavation, call it exhumation
and with all you sacrificed,
run off into the still night air.

-Tyler Knott Gregson-

If they reach for you,offer up your arms and hold,stay until...

If they reach for you,

offer up your arms and hold,

stay until they go.

Holy jumpin sloppy joe it’s my Mom’s birthday! That’s right, on this day some odd years ago, @tooltime33 was born and from then til now she’s been redefining strength, passion, adventure, and joy. Whether she’s building the foundations of a new home with her bare hands, or keeping the foundation of a family strong, she does it with her whole heart. Happy Birthday Marmie, I love you so much. Everyone do me a favor and wish her a happy and tell her where in the world you’re sayin it from!

*Loving writing these custom poems for all of you.  If you want one, hit the merch shop in the bio.*

*My Podcast is on Spotify or iTunes ! Hear these as spoken word poetry! Linkthing is in bio*

We are what we learn from those who learned
before us, we are what is handed down
tenderly but laced with strength.
We are the sense of adventure,
but we are the patience to redefine it
when our hearts are anchored
to the stillness of someone else.
We are the lessons hard fought
and fortitude granted as we bear witness
to its embodiment in another,
no blood, no tears, after all.

Now, we hold our own, we
the resilient shown the way.

Takes most of a life to find our calling,
to hear the siren song
young ears are too busy to notice,
young hands too tired to hold,
darkened with earth and sweat,
shaking though strong.  

Held us then, and now they hold
those we hold, tenderly but laced
with the same strength.  
We are what we learn from those
who took what they learned before us
and delivered it, we are what we
pass on, ferocious courage in quiet heart
filled with brave calm, for after all

no blood, no tears.

-Tyler Knott Gregson-

Never just lovers,and never just best of friends,we are...

Never just lovers,

and never just best of friends,

we are everything.
