shameless book promotion time! more from my 2018 collection ‘a distilled spirit.’

 this book wasn’t just about writing what i observed while drinking at bars. this book was the first time i began to dissect my inner feelings and put them on a plate to share. 

 i’ve had zero f*cks since. 

 ‘a distilled spirit’ is available on amazon for your reading pleasure. link is in my profile. if you enjoy it, please indulge me the favor of a review.

 peace!

 today’s selection is:

‘empty, still you try’

my bones gleam

my eyes ache

as your unwavering light

searches across my pores.

you curse my resolve

while you continue your

bloodletting—

when will you learn my veins dried

a long time ago.
