༄selection of 'april poems' from 2024
"i realized the moon is not only a disc
but also observable occultation.
we will see disappearing time
expressed as parallel numbers
falling from the atmosphere,
the stars measuring the separated seconds."
➸➸➸
"i look between my questions as they multiply,
visible to others, and becoming ordinary
to someone else
sometimes, i listen to the fires that they kindle,
feeding them with found hearts,
weaving sunshine patterns from the answers."

"of course, you'll fly into the mountains,
raise up a dream of gold behind the possible,
have the chance to weave a road we'll know,
pointing the way along the rough ravines of soil and stone."
༄prion
"a misfolded shape,
the genetic other,
infectious to all structure
and caused by specific chains
in death, the cause of insomnia
is memories, their structure
resistant to containment.
the words self-propagate,
found throughout the body
in the blood,
form anchored to the brain;
the name is altered
to distinguish the normal,
the identical,
the incorporated
nerves activate
and filaments spread,
lacking that sequence of memory
that bones express
i tried to explain replication,
the rate of the problem
spontaneously exponential,
a growth dependent on
disruption
in the absence of balance
(however fatal this has been,
it is that complex
that provides
discovery.)"
