Arise, oh the broken
and find one another
knitted together underneath glass-topped tables
muted by mythology and obscured by the lens
Turn it over on its end
We were only told we were alone

Peace primes the mind
Long, slow breaths
Loose muscles
The opposite of arson
The opposite of ready, set, go
More the empty bowl
The offering and the acceptance of not knowing

A well is a well in its action
In stasis... it ceases to be
It is hole
It is cavernous-empty
It is broken-down
It is...
Sand and dirt and dust
A well is a well in its action
In its approach to thirst
And its fulfillment

crawling out of my skin, bitter anxious, like the tea in my cup I can almost hold my hand steady now or enough to leave the room, falling down in slow motion, nearly imperceptible were it not so synchronous with so many #neuroknotty #micropoem #micropoetry

I used to empty my tears at the end of the week
alone in a tepid bath
A primal, guttural groan
to release all that was within me
Once I left only
a gray film along my insides
held hollow #neuroknotty #micropoetry #poetry

Time, often perpetuated by a fog
Of mind or of atmosphere
From recollection, I draw spheres
Circles of connection
Drawings & drawbacks
Overlays in lead as I am led
The weight of which is imperceptible

From the midst of vines and scorched-earth-speak-to-me-nots
I shuffled out my repose
Dusted it off and gave it pause
Told it to take in and to consider
To think deeper than today's intentions typically allow
To step outside & offer something measured & coy #neuroknotty #micropoetry #poetry

In the parting & meeting of the clouds
Silver or gold or cotton lining
Or peaks of purples & shots of orange & red bursting
Either/Neither says nothing of the day we can expect

Over & under
& the face of a clock for reference
The sun was set to return
She is brutal & bound by promise
Failure to act
Acting as-if
And all amounting to
'it's in your hands'
Phoenix ashes are hard to come by
Not scarce
Just invisible for the glare

Upon the anxious tip of a pin/pen
A pause resounding
'I want to dream of how things could be before all at once I forget,'
The pen resumes
Shaken by theft & clocks wound prematurely

The fox was gray
Reflexive moisture in the darkness
witnessed her

Fingers drawn across backs & shoulders
Hairs standing on end
A room sans topography
The map is useless

I walked across that room-slow, the hallway stretched out a nightmarish-meter & continued on, on, on…
Lengthening in entrapped & scored with loose forks, clay overworked & sliding from its pillar
Turned tables guided by unseen feet
The spin is dizzying

I'm a crooked-lipped woman
I don't know if it's the face I was given
Or the life that I've led
What it means is
I've been holding something in
Or barely letting something out
And it shows
