deconstruct billshakes

That gentle frame, the lovely gaze:
every eye will play
the very same unfair
which leads to hideous frost
everywhere,
left a prisoner in walls
of beauty remembrance--
what it was.
Distilled, they meet,
their substance still lives.

wives/widows

"something to consider: failed relationships based on interconnectivity provide a cruel lens at which to view the conversation causes one to tear and tease apart the words read it line by line with highlighter in hand something that sounds just like breakup psychology deep and orange and frustrated both operate on id and not superego unwilling to look for others stubborn counterpoints financially skeletons in closet sleep problems and sexual drive excitement vs. dynamic forgive and forget syndrome (a condition that strikes too much of prototype television iGeneration childlike naivete) levels of irritability tendency to gravitate towards conflict shameful relaxation the man the empty man is just like an unshaded cartoon black and white cartoon character outline stick figure no depth color definition closed eyes abstract expressionism "media is the message" organic Romantic highly internal inspiration"

fancy periods

"Although we don't know where LH and FSH themselves bond to the brain, we do know that estrogen, which is controlled by them and therefore also increases in midcycle, bonds to the limbic areas of the brain, which play an important role in intuition. Thus ovulation appears to prime the intuitive network and open up the channels so that women can hear more clearly."

this sentence will ruin/save your life

at his funeral i did not cry
because of his death (for
i knew this, the eventual end
of his flesh, would come)
but for the loss accompanied.
i suddenly felt alone without
that seemingly trivial comfort,
to watch his lips move and curl
around syllables with elastic grace,
unable to ever know how
i existed, or even if i did exist,
beyond those barriers.
