this street is a painting

August 24, 2008

between
6:25 and 6:48pm
this street is a
painting
as
sunlight falls
through leafy fingers
photons spilling
like grains of sand
into piles on the shadowy
sidewalk
i’m suddenly afraid
of where i step in case
the paint
should
smear.

My Sieve and Sand

July 31, 2008

My Sand is my emotions

My Sieve is my mind

My Sand moves through the motions

Whilst My Sieve looks behind

legitimacy
is only one of the many reasons
to have labels
so beautiful

we seem so real now
i just want to poke us
to see if we’re really still here….

sieveandsand.com

under heaven
everyone has one
some people have three

mine was a purple penut… a canvass… a Caveness

and they make you write
and they inspire you

and some of them inspire even though
they write long
and miserable

lineĀ 
after
line

so we converge and write
the sieve and the sand
