Alcoholic Poet. Poetry Equals Distance Over Time.

Distance Over Time
Sunday 1/02/2022 11:03:00 PM

 the monsters juggle their bricks. gravity remains as stern as ever. 
\
the broken plug crackles with the remains of our sober. time ties its knots in our skin. 
\
the truth searches for the hinges. as the doors on these cages slowly forget how to open.
\
we don't turn the handle. we don't try the lock. 
\
we pet the tortoise. we groom the hare. placing our bets on stubborn strangers and lingering assassins.
\
the race is patient. as we stumble to catch our breath.
\
the blood disappears into the bandages. the deception evolves. 
\
we arrive. we greet the wolf. 
\
we discard our choices. eager to be devoured. 
\
this is how we love.
