L&P #44 “Still Present”

I am present
if small

My voice may be
nothing more than
an echo
endlessly bounced
by one impermeable
wall into the next
nothing
in a world of
glass & glitter
is
the gift of grace:

Creation

I am present
if tired
I am still present

L&P #43 “Strung Together”

What is hope?
The moon shines,
a spotlight on the
devastation of lives
strung like theory,
haphazard
lonely

Out of the darkness
onto darkness

It gives us faith
that we
if alone in our
lives and homes
we are together
across the span
of the horizon
a runway of
dreams
strung together
as stars.

Day 4 update: Dragon eggs still not hatched. Wondering if I’m really going to have to wait for Belle to die of a scratch, burn her on a pyre, and then “sacrifice” myself to join her in a burny afterlife. Probably worth it. #gameofthrones #dedication #bmore

L&P #42 “Compromise”

Hello.
I don’t know...



L&P #42 “Compromise”

Hello.
I don’t know why we’re here,
you and me are too
different to ever compromise.
You’ve known me too long
to ever forget
any misstep I’ve made
all the worlds I’ve fumbled through.
But you never let me go
You
call me out with expectation
& hold my heart,
nothing I’ve earned
Why?
All I can ever hope to be
is one step
removed from the misery
promised to every archer.
Why do you want me?
You help to
brush away the frustration
telling me
the only answer I’ll ever get
or...

L&P #41 “Fast Cars & Big Cups”

We’ve all been living
all been dying
to drive fast cars

Yet the time comes
when we’ve got our ideal
and racing means flying
past those dreams
feeling cheated
to slam on the brakes
or edge the gas
a little more,
closing eyes
drinking deep

Fair warning:
the cup we use to delay
making a choice
is as bottomless as
our lives will never be

This beauty was 5 pounds of lobster coupled with a Ritz cracker stuffing filled with scallops, shrimp, and crab. We destroyed it with graceful chaos. #bmore #goodeats #thamesstreetoysterhouse #lobster #ritz (at Thames Street Oyster House)

Fun experience today trying out the difference between a backfin crabcake and a lump crabcake, at Belle’s dad’s request. Backfin tasted fattier compared to the lump’s fresher taste. Reminded me a lot of the difference between white and dark chicken meat…which I just learned an awful lot about. #bmore #faidleys #crabcake #Baltimore #goodeats #frenchfries (at Faidley’s Seafood)
