We all sink to the bottom of our respective bottles from time to time, no matter how vigorously we shake it up. I'm glad you finally figured out that it opens as well and allows you the freedom to transform into whoever you want to be. Finishing that parole is a great goal and I wish you the best in...

You pushed them as you passed me The pacifist Your hate Surrounding me in a whirlwind Of your rhetoric Your absence of empathy Burning like torches Tossed in a bonfire As you cheered their oppression You grip tight your salvation Bullshit bound with nothing dogeared You tore apart the Constitution A...

Every day is a new normal for all of us, so don't you ever feel out of place or intimidated but something new, good Sir.
Welcome home.

Beautiful.

hey you, I have this kid who's going to be 19 years old in March. I didn't meet her until two years ago but she has somehow taken up residence in my heart none the less. She reminds me a lot of you in ways I can't explain using regular terminology. She has the heart of an innocent that has been brok...

My heart like a lock still waits to be Rusted through and broken open It’s been years now since I’ve seen your smile Forever since I’ve heard your laughter Yet here I sit Waiting for a miracle Wishing you weren’t still and always The perfect fit The only key And the last wish From my whispered lips ...

Nice, it has a very etched in obituary feel to me, but also a fairytale kind of wishfulness that keeps it alive and breathing hope.

Fall woman, fall! LOL. It brings a huge smile to my face to hear such things. I've done a lot of camping the last few years and every time I'm surrounded by trees I eventually always end up thinking about you all and Jenn. I even talk to Ravens and Crows when I see them in case there is a chance tha...

That's nice of you to say
But I lost a whole family
In a single sunny day
Nothing left to tether
No purpose left to portray
I lost more than a mother
The day she passed away

You don't outrun cops here in Kern County. Unless you're faster than a bullet.

Ha! Believe me, if I were gay, there wouldn't be a closet big enough to contain me.

I sat alone in the dark, in an abandoned house I had crept into right after the last rays of sunlight had sank like teardrops from the skies. I huddled with my jacket, sitting on the floor with my back against a wall next to the window, waiting for the night to pass. Distant lightning would occasion...
