i like to draw pictures
of broken things.
self-portraits, mostly.
we met in cyberspace—
talked with mouths
stitched shut,
earthworm fingers
spread open w i d e
as our lacquered
thighs.
tapped out LCD
conversations that
shimmied across networks
and j i t t e r b u g g e d into
glowworm hearts
leaking loneliness—
lit up nerves
frayed like
live wires.
whatever about
us
that has both my
screen and pulse
delirious is certainly
more than a
computer virus;
i do not know what love is but
if i did
[this
could
be
it.]
i once told you:
"i think you could fix me."
rolled up sleeves to expose
gooseberry arms, bisque
delineated with cornsilk
cracks, faded death
stripping color from
chinadoll eyes.
waited bare-
legged for
rejection.
you simply smiled and said:
"i like to draw pictures
of beautiful things.
portraits of you, mostly."

Literature
you're proof love still exists
i believe in imaginary numbers and telephone numbers.
i believe in conjugating french verbs and french kisses.
i believe in every religion and every god ever invented.
i believe in psionics and biology, anatomy & astrology.
because:
300 miles is nothing; $50 is nothing; 6 hours is nothing.
je suis à toi. tu es à moi. i am yours, and you are mine.
i worship the church in your heart, your ribcage chapel.
together we defy scientific laws like gravity & distance.
i believe in the art of love.
i believe in a love for art.
i believe in a life without you,
but if i ever had to live one,
i'd rather believe in death.

i'll settle for the outliers
in their imperfect homes
and assume them Gods
and Kings and paragons
of what-i-wish-i-was.
i'll ignore the fire

i'll realise Time is jealous
of Infinity for never
worrying about ending,
yet Infinity is jealous
of Time for never
handling the thought
of eternal Eternity.
mirror, mirror, on the wall.
who's the most fucked-up
of all?
we all are we all are we all are we all are
we all are each other's untold secrets;
we all are each other's forgotten past;
we all are each other's invisible eraser;
we all are each other's inabilities to be
loved, to l

You say: Hi
I interpret: I'm acknowledging your existence.
I respond: Heyy :)
I mean: I love acknowledging yours.
You ask me: What are you doing later ?
I tell you: nothing.
You say: same.
I say: Let's do nothing together,
and you say okay.
