  • He Thinks, She Thinks: More on Bitterness

    If I weren’t so self-involved, I’d ask you how you were. I’d ask you how you feel about the stimulus package and Oprah and landscaping and your family.

  • On Loss

    I think I may have lost my mojo. I’m almost sure I had it at one point. I think I might have been sexy once. Way back, last summer, maybe. The most alluring thing about me now is my side bang, which hangs ever so seductively in my face and sometimes gets in my eye,…

  • Months Later, In Response

    I remember what you said about falling in love before I knew what was happening.   New loves without embodiment aside from my imagination.   The most fulfilling part of dreaming is before you wake up.   Let me sleep for a bit longer.

  • Games I Don’t Like to Play

    If I took you on confronted you with what I want would you want the same?   I’m in a maze and I’ve forgotten that if you trace your path along one side of the maze, you can find your way out. How do I remember? What wall is there to cling to?   Oh,…
