newsom has my heart this morning

in my throat, i have no voice, no words, just boxes and chords and humms and gasps.

"We are tested and pained by

What's beyond our bed
We are blessed and sustained
By what is not said

Haven't you seen what I’ve seen
Don't you know what you ought to do
I was born to love
And I intend to love you"

"I am easy
Easy to keep
Honey, you please me
Even in your sleep
But my arms want to carry
My heart wants to hold
Tell me your worries
I want to be told

Who asked you
If you want to be loved by me
Who died and made you in charge
Of who loves who
All the livelong day
If I have my way, I will love you

But One can't carry the weight
Or change the fate of Two
I've been waiting for a break
How long's it gonna take
Let me love you"

"I did not mean to shout, just drive

Just get us out, dead or alive
The road's too long to mention
Lord, it's something to see
Laid down by the Good Intentions Paving Company

All the way to the thing we've been playing at, darling
I can see that you're wearing your staying-hat, darling
For the time being, all is well
Won't you love me a spell

This is blindness, beyond all conceiving
While behind us, the road is leaving
And leaving, and falling back
Like a rope gone slack

Well, I saw straightaway that the lay was steep
But I fell for you, honey, easy as falling asleep
And that, right there is the course I keep

And no amount of talking
Is going to soften the fall
But, like after the rain
Step out of the overhang, that's all"

"Well I wish we could take every path

I could spend a hundred years adoring you
Yes, I wish we could take every path
Because I hated to close the door on you"

"And it can have no bounds, you know
It can have no end
You can take my hand in the darkness, darling
When you need a friend
And it can change in shape, or form
But never change in size
The water, it runs deep, my darling
Where it don't run wide

Only, tell me that I can
Tell me that I can
I can love you again
Love you again

Love you again.."

turning pages, seeking solace in white space.

my ears plugged, my head is buried, with my heart,

under dust under glass under ground.

i'm fooled

for sunshine

for shadows are lain

in my peripheral

my hair tightens

away from the world

wrapping into itself

my fingers can't pull it apart.

my mind will not quiet.

my heart beats irregular.

you being in love....

you being in love will tell who softly asks in love, am i separated from your body smile brain hands merely to become the jumping puppets of a dream? oh i mean: entirely having in my careful how careful arms created this at length inexcusable, this inexplicable pleasure-you go from several persons: believe me that strangers arrive when i have kissed you into a memory slowly, oh seriously -that since and if you disappear solemnly myselves ask "life, the question how do i drink dream smile and how do i prefer this face to another and why do i weep eat sleep-what does the whole intend" they wonder. oh and they cry "to be, being, that i am alive this absurd fraction in its lowest terms with everything cancelled but shadows -what does it all come down to? love? Love if you like and i like,for the reason that i hate people and lean out of this window is love,love and the reason that i laugh and breathe is oh love and the reason that i do not fall into this street is love." ee cummings
