i'm sick
i'm sick of everyone
being no one
if i could throw up that half of an apple
that could've kept me from being ill
had i eaten it whole
then
maybe i'd know better maybe i'd know better
than to wait until
i can understand
the word console
in the way that other people do
if i could count on each of my hands
every time i felt chipped away at by another
i could feel whole
but
maybe i'm no better maybe i'm no better

a portrait of you

this time i used
the bark of the alder tree
that can't grow as tall as
the red one more often seen
this time i used
the juice of a nettle leaf
its tiny hairs as needles
injecting my touch with a sting
i used to paint you
green
cause it lasted longer
than pink
which fades inevitably
and realistically
i used to paint you
green
cause it lasted longer
but it
contained too many things
that were toxic to me
this time i used
the flowerless fern
as it rid the air of
poison with seedless spurn

i found a garden
in fissures of you
a mossy pardon
for the sharpness
you started to
cut me with
cause what would it
do
to your guarded
tempestuous hue
when your clarity
can only be
ascertained by eyes
because no scope
can be used
to magnify
the flowers picked by
a person who loves you
