what
can be documented.

past

whatever

rectified;
the

know it;
after
surveys,
what is
normal.
i
ask you, again,
what can be
documented,
like the
colour of the
morning sun,
the taste in
my mouth,
desire in a
body,
the
curves of my
fuller
breasts,
empty
teardrops,
and the slow,
painful, fall
from grace.

7:48AM lest we
forget.
all i've got are
dashing thoughts.
how many times is enough
regret.
i regret
to say,
that i regularly and
constantly,
because i am
human, err.
and i err not by
choice; i err not
by definition;
but
i err in my interpretation
of the world around
me
and
in that
world are
words
which
i use as
though i own
they, because
i do, temporarily
and
i take those words,
and people,
the ones who
mean dearly to
me,
and
i give them a
meaning of my
own.
i do
it here, i do
it there,
i do
it daily.
am i
a psychopath
for
this?
but
i have decided what is a psychopath (that
makes me one i know)
i have decided
for myself, what reality i choose;
i have decided to blow
dry my naked body;
i have
decided when i do
the laundry;
i come here
and i write it
down
and then,
it floats away
from me.
i need to turn a
psychopath inside out.
or maybe i already
have.
i have no guilt
yet my definition of guilt may differ from
yours.
i
may have erred
there too.
do
not hate
me for being
free
even
though to you,
i sound
like a
psychopath.
regret, aka littlepoots: "to insanely wish that you would have been another person in a
given
situation, and
made a
different
choice."
otherwise, all there is, is to accept a decision that
you made,
and move the fuck on.
it's
not the Oxford
definition,
but
it's mine.
so
there are no
regrets, only
wishing you
were not yourself.
and
i wouldn't give
up myself, i
love myself
unconditionally.
thanks
Mom.
the
word regret
implies that
you will regret
it for the
rest of your
life.

6:38 AM
joy,
returns one sip by one sip.
boldface is stuck.
rodents gnaw. heaters whir.
winter, with no regard for
my fragile bones and global
warming, cometh.
no one knows that my life is
told in these lines; not even
those who read them;
but i've said it before, it's
all there.
my coffee is no longer what it
used to be,
a different man snores in a
different bed,
a difference heater blows hot
air,
and startled, i awoke, from a
three-second dream of a man,
his son, and his decision.
he won't read this here
though, because a man,
generally, is a man.
teach your sons and mostly
your daughters, men are still
men, but women are forced to
adapt.
and adapt they do.
now you didn't want to read
that at six-forty-five on a
cold November morning, did
you.
now the earth rotates enough
to brighten the grey sky;
things must go on, pci dss is
nearly history, and everything
else you wonder will pan out,
it will pan out.

7:21 am -
i
was louern.
of teams, allegiances, and
fighting with fonts.
rodents gnaw, poots cannot spell
anymore, weird coincidences, have
you ever really been 'careful'.
keeping people outside my life, that
was for books, liars, and the weak.
which one am i, now?
the coffee is thick, the sky still
very dark, and the heat is on. i can
smell it.
when we look at a date, a month,
really look at it, we don't see many
Novembers. there aren't that many we
recall, are there.
in fact, not one, sticks out, for
someone born in august. except the
last one. and this one. the smell of
heat is stronger now.
i squirm, the pigs chirp. stress.
it's everywhere.
there is no rest, really, no rest.
it can only be bought.
so i bought some. how do other
adults do it, i wonder.
...and millions of other things that
simply can't be spoken, recorded, or
written down.
so today, i must wonder aloud, what
is the point.
ntsts,
