\r\nSheep Dreams<\/strong>\r\n\r\nMy sheep stumble down the plank\r\n  and jump ship\r\ncrashing into waters whisking with every shark\r\nthat ever detected the drunken cologne\r\n  of my blood\r\n\r\nPLACE SETTING<\/strong>\r\n\r\nWhere you live when you are not where you are living, and by living, I mean residing.  \r\nAnd by live, I\u2019m referencing the space constructed of memory and curiosity.  And by curiosity, \r\nI speak of the galaxy where dead wishes can\u2019t be piled like bodies. They float seamlessly, \r\nsnag your eyes with a twinkle of a wink. A location as unattainable as those aspirations you \r\ngifted pulse and game plan. Then suffocated, ripped to portions, and ingested slowly. Well, shit.\r\n\r\nThe setting of a play, a place, the actors are not all actors, you are writer, director, knowing \r\nit will never be produced.\r\n\r\n       FIN\r\n\r\nGhosted<\/strong>\r\n\r\nI ghosted myself\r\nor am I a ghost to myself?\r\nHaunting my leftovers, haunted by what\r\nI left over in a geography\r\nwithout space or proof.\r\n\r\nHushing Heroes<\/strong>\r\n\r\nI\u2019ve been reading my heroes wrong\r\nI\u2019ve been reading my heroes bedtime stories\r\nA collection of heroes \r\nis a herd of one\u2019s own insecurities\r\nI\u2019m rocking both to sleep  <\/pre>\n
