midnight omelette

there is still jalapeno under my nails,
                                                            i know because i bite them.


i feel microcosmic
i feel macrocosmic
i feel that the night i knew you were > all the deadend wannabe artists with groomed hair and a knack for saying the wrong things at the right times

the moon was full as a curvy woman's hips
and i sleeplessly felt its caress through the sky the roof my heart
it carried me pieces of you
and they fit

people ask me if i'm madly in love with a smirk
people ask me what happens when it goes wrong
first loves die hard, they say
i don't know what happened to make everyone assume that
love is destined to be a ship lost at sea

my mom raised me to be tenacious
and i am directing it towards us
you & i & our story
what we create is more real than the world

thank you moon

8/29

walked through a downpour hand in hand
someone up there in the sky really likes flash photography
concocted late night breakfast burritos
i eat onions like apples
the thing about Adam is
we work on this run-on sentence
and he can make me laugh and cry on a dime
always because it's so beautiful
new (old) shoes, new (old) couch
and a moment with no end

biked 13 miles uphill  while partially blind (after losing my glasses) in 98 degree weather with no socks and a heavy backpack to the work that has yet to pay me this month where i serve snooty old women baked goods
