14 Tensions on the 14th of the 1st Month

14 Tensions on the 14th of the 1st Month


Iced streets         &     walking to the corner liquor store

Flat-open street-wide Detroit     

                           &     snipped-love closed-door Detroit

Exuberance        &     reserve

Reserve              &      coming alive like a puppy

Bicycles             &      ice

My head in a helmet 

                           &     the pavement

Living in 400 Brooklyn square feet

                           &     a garden a yard a sky

Sleeping with your body against a man 

                           &     where is a man to sleep against

Funny movies on my phone 

                           &     my time on this earth

Beer                   &     coffee

Being real with my landlord 

                           &     being real with my landlord

Buying lattes     &      what if I went blind  


Remembered beauty of moss 

                          &       the meaningless of moss
